Player Profile:
Name: Ethan Hyams
Nickname: Hyamsy
AFL Sydney Club: Pennant Hills Demons
Junior Club: Westbrook Junior Australian Football Club
Position: Defender/Wing
What is one thing that we don’t know about this Rising Star that they are well known for around the club?
Ethan is a very well-mannered and hard-working kid, takes a lot of pride in his fitness and footy craft.
What role do they play for the club(s) both on and off the field?
He is a very versatile player we can use in multiple roles. In defence he can play on keys or smalls with his size and agility. Ethan also has the ability to go through the midfield with his blistering pace.
Reason for nomination this round:
Ethan has been huge all season but this weekend he played a very good 4 quarter game vs a tough opponent. He can play various roles throughout a game which doesn’t faze him, his ball use and speed were evident in our tightly fought out game vs UNSW-ES Bulldogs.
Coach quote on Performance:
“Hyamsy was super vs UNSW-ES, he was able to do a job down back but also provide a spark on the wing with his line breaking pace and super boot. He has been a revelation for us this season, we look forward to Eth playing a big role in our finals series.” Pennant Hills Demons Men’s Premier Division Coach – Benjamin Roberts
