sharks outta the bag. and yes, this is real :) i’ve officially committed to @southportsharksafl for the remainder of the 2026 season, and i’m absolutely stoked. that said, this wasn’t an easy decision. i’ve lost plenty of Z’s over the past fortnight, not just because it means packing up and moving interstate, but because it means saying goodbye to some incredible people and a club that has looked after me better than i ever could’ve asked for. to everyone at @carlton_reserves I LOVE YOU ALL. for someone who only played one game, the love i’ve felt from this club has been nothing short of unconditional. players, docs, trainers, physios, coaches, supporters, every single one of you. THANK YOU 💙 the past 18 months has been one of the wildest rides of my life, and i’ve felt nothing but supported and embraced every step of the way. from rehabbing my navicular stress fracture coming out of the AFL (ily @andrewletang @joshkleeberg 🐐’s), to documenting what life actually looks like as a “semi-professional athlete” the whole club got around me in a way i’ll never forget. i’m truly indebted to the baggers for the opportunities they gave me both on and off the field, and i’ll always have a soft spot for the navy blue 💙💙💙 to southport i can’t fcken wait. thank you for the opportunity and i’m coming in ready to work 🖤🤍 and to everyone who has followed along and supported me post-AFL you’re the fricken best. i love every one of ya, and i’m not going anywhere. buckle up 🦈❤️ - @coooperhamilton
