I have a lot of 'favourite' Freo players but Hilly is special. So sad to see him go, but we were lucky to see him play so many wonderful games and he is a player, and person, who epitomizes the Freo spirit. I was in denial for most of this season, believing that somehow Hilly would get back on the park before the end, but sadly not to be. I don't know how many times I've watched the video of that magic moment against Geelong - gives me a thrill every time, but there were lots of other highlights. Such an exciting player to watch.
I wish him all the best for the future, and hope he can remain part of the club in some capacity.
