Collingwood forward Bobby Hill has won the 2024 Virgin Australia Mark of the Year. 

Hill leapt to the skies in Round 14 against North Melbourne at Marvel Stadium to take the grab, almost hitting the roof in the process.

Jack Crisp kicked the ball to the top of the goal square late in the third term, before Hill used two North Melbourne players and teammate Billy Frampton as a step ladder to pull down the grab deemed the best of the year. What made Hill’s mark extra special was the second ‘spring’ the 24-year-old seemed to gain whilst in the air.

When asked if it was the best mark he's ever taken, Hill was jovial in response.

"Oh probably Grand Final Day," joked Hill. 

Hill will receive $50,000 and two million Velocity Points – enough Points for two people to redeem return Business Class Reward Seats to over 500 destinations around the world.

When asked what he'd do with the prize...

"Probably take Jamie to Vegas."

Collingwood has had three past winners of the official award prior to Hill:

Jamie Elliott (2013) Andrew Krakouer (2011) Chris Tarrant (2003)
