Who is Scott Hill?

Scott Hill is an Australian retired professional rugby league footballer of the 1990s and 2000s. He was previously with the Harlequins Rugby League club in the European Super League. His usual position is at five-eighth. Hill previously played in Australia for the Melbourne Storm, Hunter Mariners and the Canterbury Bulldogs.

Scott Hill is a former New South Wales and Australian representative player.

Renowned for his swiftness, speed and sleight of hand, Hill has often been seen as a real entertainer in Rugby League. Though he is often seen as brilliant by many, he has been criticised for not being able to consistently perform at the highest level. His good form over the years has seen him represent both his state and country.

Recruited by the Storm from the Hunter Mariners, Hill was among several Melbourne Storm players from the club's inaugural year: 1998. He missed the Storm's 1999 NRL grand final win over the St. George Illawarra Dragons due to a knee reconstruction. Having won the 1999 Premiership, the Melbourne Storm travelled to England to contest the 2000 World Club Challenge against Super League Champions St Helens RLFC, with Hill playing at five-eighth and scoring two tries in the victory.
