He was a late developer. But he is a determined bugger apparently and loving being at the Hawks at present.how he didnt make the Vic Metro squad last year, i will never know, this kid has speed and class.
He had a better game than O'Sullivan imo. Really covered ground from defensive 50 to the forward 50Josh Bennetts (18 disposals, 1 goal, 5 marks)
“If you watched the game, you would’ve seen his legs go ‘bull of the gate’, he is working his backside off, he hits the scoreboard regularly and has great score involvement. He has had seven score involvements, 17 touches and we saw him working up the ground to get five uncontested marks, so his work rate has been really good. He plays his role really well. He’s not the flashy type of player, but what he does, he makes it count. He is progressing really nicely. Like all our draftees, showing the ability to make his decisions quicker in defence will be his next step.”

He is playing the high half forward role extremely well. He is consistently providing an outlet for our defenders to kick to and he is so clean with the ball at ground level.16 disposals - 5 marks - 3 tackles - 4 inside 50s - 2 goals
Bennetts has definitely gone under the radar a bit in the VFL so far this year. While he hasn’t necessarily dominated, he’s playing above expectations. If he keeps this form up I think he will be a Category A rookie next year.
3 yearsHow long can he be a Cat B rookie? Hope he gets his opportunity as he has been electric for you guys.
His picking the game up quickly, improving rapidly across the year. Another pre season and he will have the strength to lay those repeat tacklesBox Hill fell to a fourth loss on the season on Saturday, going down to an in-form Footscray by 20 points.
Josh Bennetts (1 goal, 18 disposals, 6 marks)
"Josh's work rate was exceptional. He provides great outlet as a high forward, the next step for Josh's game is now providing the pressure. For a small forward not to have a tackle, that's an area of the game that he would obviously like to improve in. But he had 18 touches, eight score involvements, one goal, which was a nice return. He provides great energy and a link between all three lines, to connect our back half to the forward half."
Will iam concerned for you.Some have told me that Hawthorn like to get players with the same first name but I told them that the club was only Joshing
You can play rookies now without upgrading. They changed the rules a couple years backCan he be upgraded to the main list now with Chads injury. Would like to see him get a game this season
He's Cat B. Are they the same? Thought it was only Cat A you could playYou can play rookies now without upgrading. They changed the rules a couple years back
Thought it was just a blanket rule that any player on the list could play nowHe's Cat B. Are they the same? Thought it was only Cat A you could play
Might be. I can't keep up...Thought it was just a blanket rule that any player on the list could play now
