Early life


Born in New Zealand, Savage moved to Australia as a boy.[1] His father is Māori and his mother is European New Zealander.[2]


Playing career



Hawthorn (2009–2013)


Savage was drafted by Hawthorn from the Dandenong Stingrays with the 75th selection (5th round) in the 2008 AFL Draft.[3] He plays as a medium-sized midfielder and wore the number 21 guernsey at Hawthorn.

Savage made his debut against Adelaide at the MCG on 14 August 2009.[4] He had four kicks and three handpasses and also kicked a point.

Savage was nominated for the 2011 AFL Rising Star after Hawthorn's round 8 game against St Kilda. He had 26 disposals, 14 marks and kicked 2 goals in Hawthorn's 30-point win.[5]

In the 2013 trade period, Savage was traded to St Kilda with Pick 17 for ruckman Ben McEvoy.[6]


St Kilda (2014–2020)


Savage made his debut for St Kilda in round 1 of 2014 against Melbourne and became a regular in Alan Richardson's lineup.

By the 2020 AFL season, under new coach Brett Ratten, Savage could no longer maintain a spot in St Kilda's best 22. He was delisted after the 2020 season, his last match for the Saints being a semi-final against Richmond.


Personal life


In January 2015, Savage' partner, Sarah, gave birth to their first child, a son.[7]
