    Insatiable Dog

    Good story on Hrovat



    MANY people excel in their chosen field because they never allow themselves to become satisfied, and as a result they are always striving to improve. It's an attitude that could propel Western Bulldogs draftee Nathan Hrovat to a long and distinguished AFL career.

    This season, Hrovat amassed more individual honours than perhaps any other player selected in this year's NAB AFL Draft. Among the gongs were All Australian selection, the MVP award for Vic Metro, third place in the TAC Cup's Morrish Medal (despite playing just eight games), the rover's spot in the TAC Cup Team of the Year, along with the Northern Knights' captaincy and best and fairest award.

    But the pint-sized (175cm/76kg) midfielder - who averaged 27disposals, eight clearances and five tackles in the TAC Cup, and 25 touches (10 contested) and 4 clearances in the NAB AFL Under 18 Championships - knows only too well that the hard work has only just begun.

    It's really positive to know that we are creating a culture of hard work and determination through guys like Hrovat - I really believe players like this help us get the best out of others too.

    Read it again. I know the masses share the love for Stinger, but I've got a soft spot for this little fella. My favourite recruit and can't wait for him to debut next year.
