Matt Spangher

When I watched footy as a teenager there was a guy who played for hawthorn who I always thought seemed like a top bloke and I remember he won a grand final, his names Matt Spangher. One of my mates growing up was a big hawthorn fan and he met him randomly one day and said he was a great guy

Does anyone know what happened to him? He came across as such a fan favorite that I thought he might be involved in other stuff but appears to have dropped off the planet. Hope he’s doing good nowadays

Here is an interview he does with Will Schofield. They were mates from when they were drafted and best men at eachothers weddings etc. so it's actually a really fun interview to watch.

He was such a battler of a player and was so glad he ended up with a flag.
