Hawthorn forward Bradley Hill (pictured) is recovering well after surgery on his wrist injury last week.

The Hawks have been devastated by the loss of a number of key players with skipper Luke Hodge the latest casualty after fracturing his arm in the weekend loss to Geelong.

Missing games through injury is a new thing for 22 year old Hill but with the surgery completed, he’s confident its only a matter of time before he’ll be back on the paddock for the premiers.
