The Hamilton Wildcats AFC would like to congratulate veteran Wildcat Jeff "Steiny" Steinmetz on playing his 50th OAFL game this past weekend in Hamilton v the Toronto Eagles. Over his 4 seasons with the Wildcats, "Steiny" as he's affectionately known around the Club, has gone about his business quietly and his 50 games have gone by extremely quickly. Despite not saying much off the field or being a vocal leader on the oval, he definitely leads by example during games and shows that the size of one's body does not represent the size of their heart. Jeff uses his blazing speed and small stature to get under taller players, and win many contests to the footy on the ground. He takes a great mark and has really worked on improving his kicking over the last couple of seasons, which has paid off for both his percentage in front of oppositions goals as well as the Wildcats' scorelines.
We couldn't be happier to have had Jeff as part of the Club since he joined only 4 seasons ago, and we look forward to at least another 50 games from the Wildcats "sparkplug". Congratulations Steiny, you've definitely earned every game that you've notched on your belt while wearing the "yellow & black" and we're proud to call you a teammate!!!
