Afterwards, the official AFL website listed the Derry native as one of five talking points from the Hawks' frightening victory.
"It was hard to miss the Hawks’ redhead debutant from County Derry in Ireland," the report reads. "Even Conor Glass’ fluorescent beard lit up Domain Stadium when he skipped on to an AFL field for the first time seven minutes into the first term (when Luke Hodge had to depart via the blood rule). Dead set, you just about needed sunglasses. "Glass didn’t take long to get amongst the action and had five touches by quarter-time. He’s got plenty of speed and looked composed across half-back. He did plenty of good things in a very promising debut."And it wasn't just his hair that Australian pundits were raving about - although it did take up a lot of the conversation. Glass' highlights looked remarkably solid too. He's even curling the oval ball like it was an O'Neill's size five on a windy pitch in Maghera. https://twitter.com/7aflgameday/status/888930241745362944 After the game, he came in for very special praise from Hawthorn coach Alastair Clarkson but he looked to take it all in his stride as he sat back and listened and didn't allow himself to get carried away with one good game. https://twitter.com/HawthornFC/status/888609553272549376 In his own words, there's more to come. He's not living on the other side of the world for a holiday. He's not the sort of person who rests on his laurels when he gets picked to play. He's a winner - a born winner. He's been doing that all his life because that's all he knows. You're only kidding yourself if you think this is the best it will get for Conor Glass. https://www.instagram.com/p/BW7NV4KH3F4/
