Craig from Wheelers Hill says: The versatility of Hille makes him an outstanding player for the red and black, whether it be ruck, forward or his tall strong presence threw the centre Hille always gives 110% in whatever task he is set. Combine his endurance, determination and hunger it makes him the back bone of team. Keep it up Hille your an inspiration.
