It is with sadness that we announce the passing of triple premiership player Malcolm Hill, who passed away peacefully on 17 May, surrounded by his loving family.
Malcolm began his illustrious football career in the VFL with Hawthorn, contributing to their first premiership in 1961. After his time with Hawthorn, Malcolm joined Sturt and played intermittently during the 1960s, participating in a total of 40 games and securing three premierships in 1966, 1968, and 1969.
Beyond his time with Sturt, Malcolm was deeply involved with the Berri Football Club and managed the Berri Hotel for many years, leaving a lasting impact on the community.
Malcolm’s legacy as a formidable player and dedicated community member will be fondly remembered. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
Our thoughts and condolences are with Malcolm’s family and friends during this difficult time.
