Career high kicks (15) against St Kilda (round 22, 2018)
Career high tackles (8) against Geelong (round 21, 2018)
Standout
Round 20, 2018 (versus Essendon Bombers): One of the most important kicks of his nascent career put the Hawks 10 points up with 40 seconds to play against the Bombers. Although Colyer pulled a goal back late, it was too little, too late for the Bombers. Worpel out-muscled the bigger Michael Hurley and left the defender on the ground as he strode into an open goal to kick the clincher. This signalled, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that Worpel belongs in the big show.
Shocker
Round 7, 2018 (versus Essendon Bombers): A week after making his debut for Hawthorn against the Saints, Worpel found it difficult to get into the game as the Hawks took care of business against the Bombers by 23 points at the MCG. Worpel recorded only six disposals, no marks and three tackles from 73% time on ground.
