After the highs of 2008 and a club best and fairest, the imposing ruckman was dealt the lows of a knee reconstruction and a lengthy rehabilitation last year, going down early in the Anzac Day match against Collingwood. The club is hopeful of Hille being ready for round one, and if he can return to near his best, will form a devastating ruck combination with the athletic Patrick Ryder.

Draft history: 1999 National AFL Draft 3rd round selection (Essendon) No. 40 overall traded by Hawthorn for No. 33 (Tim Clarke) and No. 48 (Chance Bateman).
