Nick ‘The Wizard’ Watson faced the media just moments after being drafted by Hawthorn with pick 5 in the AFL National Draft.

Listen as this self-described “energiser bunny” discussed:

• Brent Harvey’s influence on his career;

• The knock on his height;

• His relationship with Sam Mitchell;

• The club he supported growing up (spoiler: it’s not Hawthorn);

• Learning from Luke Breust;

• Bringing the “fun” to Bunjil Bagora;

• Embracing the inner-pest; and

• His friendship with draft hopeful Will Lorenz, grandson of Hawks legend Graham Arthur.
