BOBBY: The X-Factor Collingwood Didn’t Know It Needed
When Bobby Hill joined the Collingwood Football Club, few knew just how electrifying his presence would become. Fast forward to today, and it’s hard to imagine the Pies without him.
Bobby isn’t just another name on the team sheet — he’s an energy, a spark, and at times, the very heartbeat of Collingwood’s forward line. Small in stature but massive in impact, Bobby Hill plays the game with a flair that excites crowds and rattles defenders.
His journey hasn’t been easy. After facing personal health challenges and making the move from GWS to Collingwood, Bobby brought with him more than just talent — he brought resilience. And on the biggest stage of all, the 2023 AFL Grand Final, he delivered a performance for the ages.
Four goals. Norm Smith Medal. Premiership player.
That day, Bobby etched his name into Collingwood folklore. He didn’t just play in a Grand Final — he owned it. His speed, pressure, and ability to find space where there seemingly was none left fans and commentators in awe. It wasn’t just about goals — it was about moments. Moments that change games. Moments that make champions.
But Bobby is more than just a highlight reel. He brings a contagious energy to the club — a blend of joy, humility, and fierce competitiveness. Whether it’s a soaring mark, a goal out of nowhere, or a crucial tackle inside 50, he gives 100% every time he pulls on that black and white jumper.
In a team known for its fighting spirit and never-say-die attitude, Bobby Hill fits perfectly. He plays with heart. He plays for his teammates. And he plays for the fans who now chant his name with pride at the MCG.
As the Magpies push forward into a new season, one thing’s for sure — with Bobby in the forward line, anything is possible.
BOBBY HILL. Electric. Fearless. Unforgettable.
