Hey guys, I have decided to talk up an old work mate of mine from back in my Concreting days, you may have heard me mention him before... Tim O'Brien was drafted by the Hawks in 2013, would've been drafted to Adelaide but there was that Kurt Tippet Saga ;-) Since Franklin has left Hawthorn, and poor Roughy has had to unfortunately take time of to get through this difficult cancer battle, Timmy has been able to get a bit of size and strength behind him, giving him more confidence, and after a few years of playing a game here and there, he has played almost, if not every game this season for Hawthorn, averaging at least a goal a game, 10 disposals, a few tackles, and he can take a bloody good mark!

For a skinny redheaded 18 year old from Mount Gambier, I think hes showing a lot of promise, he's even been taking a few interviews after some games... And he's without a doubt, one of the nicest, down to earth footy players I have ever met!
So make sure you look out for Timmy O'Brien when you are watching the Hawks... I am actually a massive Crows supporter, but always stick with the SA boys no matter where they move to!

He's not Franklin, but they must have seen something in him to give Tim his number 23, and He's not Roughhead, but we all know that the Redheads can play some good footy, don't we Danielle Halliday! He's like some Franklin/Roughead Hybrid in the making, and I for one have already started my collection, with my favourite card swap of all time being Timmy's Autographed and Certified Draft year card, and a hand signed autograph of his SA Rookie card!!
Here is another video of his first goal in the AFL, very nice!

I'll update my little shrine once they all turn up in the post, anyone have a card of Timmy that I don't have, or something signed I don't have, let me know!!
Go Timmy!!
Go Crows!!
Cheers, Damo
