State football


Hoskin-Elliott played junior football for North Sunshine in the Western Region Football League (WRFL).[1] During his time at the club he kicked 223 goals in 106 games, including 66 goals he kicked in the 2005 season, in which he won the Under-12 Division 3 best and fairest award. Three years later, in the 2008 season, he won the Under 16 Division 2 best and fairest award.[2] Afterwards, Hoskin-Elliott joined the Western Jets in the TAC Cup. In the 2010 TAC Cup season, he played seven matches.[3] He played only 12 matches in the 2011 TAC Cup season, but finished second in the club's best and fairest vote.[4] Hoskin-Elliott represented Vic Metro in the 2011 AFL Under 18 Championships, including being selected among the best in their matches against Vic County[5] and against Western Australia,[6] and was selected for the All-Australian team.[7]


AFL career



Greater Western Sydney


Hoskin-Elliott was drafted by Greater Western Sydney with the fourth overall selection in the 2011 national draft.[8] He made his debut in Greater Western Sydney's inaugural season, in 2012,[9] playing in the opening round of the season against Sydney, kicking one of the club's five goals.[10] During the 2014 season, Hoskin-Elliott showed his promise, kicking 26 goals in 20 games.[11] However, due to soft-tissue injuries, he only managed to play 11 games in the 2015 season and the first two games of the 2016 season.[11] His last game at the club, a win against Geelong in the second round, saw him taking a screamer which was a Mark of the Year contender.[12]


Collingwood


At the conclusion of the 2016 season, Hoskin-Elliott was traded to Collingwood for their second round pick of the 2017 AFL draft.[11][13] Collingwood's List Manager, Derek Hine, said that he "is an elite talent, someone we thought highly of as a junior and a player we have tracked throughout his career."[14] Hoskin-Elliott kicked a career high six goals in the round 11 victory over Fremantle during the 2018 season.[15][16] He made his 100th AFL appearance in the 2018 Grand Final against West Coast at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.[17] Hoskin-Elliott missed the beginning of the 2019 season following minor surgery on his left iliotibial band.[18] In February, he signed a contract extension, keeping him at Collingwood until the end of the 2022 season.[19]


Personal life


Hoskin-Elliott's great-great grandfather Charlie Norris was a three-time premiership player, once for Collingwood in 1910 and twice for Fitzroy in 1913 and 1916.[20] Hoskin-Elliott grew up supporting Collingwood,[14] in West Sunshine a suburb in the west of Melbourne.[18] He married his high school sweetheart, Kirstie, in October 2017, and she gave birth to their first child, Flynn, in May 2018.[18][21][22] Followed by a daughter Ivy in April 2021
