Cameron Mackenzie

Cameron Mackenzie (born 21 January 2004) is an Australian rules footballer who plays for Hawthorn in the Australian Football League. Born in London to South African parents, he moved to Australia with his family at the age of one, and a year in the south of France at twelve left him fluent in French and nicknamed Frenchie. His father's South African birth made him eligible for the St Kilda Next Generation Academy, but a change to draft rules meant St Kilda could not match a bid before pick 40. Hawthorn took him with the seventh selection in the 2022 draft, he debuted against Essendon at the MCG in round 1 of 2023, and he was part of the club's 2024 McClelland Trophy team.
