It is a really friendly club. All the older blokes and the senior players get around you and make you feel welcome when you get here.

I joined the club about four years ago. My stepdad had been playing here and so I came down from Ararat and gave it a crack.

Who do you see as your toughest opponent and why?

Back when I was playing under-14s, Taylors Lake were tough to play against.

Riley Hall was one of their best players and always gave us a run.

Their team worked very well and they played some good footy against us.

Who's your favourite player of all time?

In the AFL, Patrick Cripps is good to watch and with the Swifts I like watching Scott Carey play his footy.

I like Cripps because of the way he goes in for the footy and is just hungry for it and to get it to his teammates.

What do you want to do when you are older?

I obviously want to keep playing footy and try and go far with my sports.

I'm still at school at the moment and then I might look at getting a trade maybe, I'll see how I go.

What is your pregame routine?

I'm normally pretty chill going into the game, pretty relaxed.

I don't have any superstitions now, but I do like listening to some music before the game.

Any upbeat music gets you going.
