Paul Andrew Hasleby (born 12 June 1981) is a formerAustralian rules footballer. He played for theFremantle Football Club in theAustralian Football League (AFL) and theEast Fremantle andSouth Fremantle Football Clubs in theWest Australian Football League (WAFL). He was the winner of theAFL Rising Star award in 2000, and coached South Fremantle from 2012 to 2014.
Hasleby grew up playing football inNorthampton, a small town 470 km north ofPerth. He moved to Perth to attend secondary school atMazenod College where he played football, cricket and tennis. He represented WA in both the Under 16s and Under 18s national championships and won theLarke Medal for the best player at the 1999 Under 18 carnival. In 1999 he played 18 games of league football withEast Fremantle in theWest Australian Football League and won the club's best and fairest award, the Lynn Medal.
In the1999 AFL draft Hasleby was taken byFremantle with the 2nd selection, behindJosh Fraser, who was selected byCollingwood. Both Collingwood and the Dockers had priority picks in the draft, as they had each won 5 or fewer games in the 1999 season. In 2003,Dwayne Russell raised concerns that Fremantle had beenhappy to lose the final game of 1999 to ensure that they received the priority pick.[1] Fremantle deny that they did not try to win the game, instead blaming injuries and an inexperienced team for their poor performance.
Hasleby immediately showed why he was so highly regarded with 30 possessions in his debut game in Round 1, 2000. He was awarded theAFL Rising Star nomination for that game. His form continued throughout the year and he only missed the final round due to injury. 2001 was a disappointing year for Fremantle, with only two wins for the season, and Hasleby's form also suffered. However, Hasleby did not miss a game between 2002 and 2005, despite suffering at times from a hernia-like injury during the 2005 season,[2] and he won threeGlendinning–Allan Medals in three years. In seasons 2003 and 2004 he was ranked in the top 10 in the league in total disposals (kicks plus handballs).
He suffered a season-endingknee injury in Fremantle's firstNAB Cup game of 2008 againstWest Coast atSubiaco Oval, tearing both hisanterior cruciate andmedial collateral ligaments; his knee buckled as he was tackled by two opposition players.[3]
In 2009, he won his fourth Glendinning–Allan Medal, which he still holds the outright record for.
In August 2010, Hasleby announced his retirement as a player in the AFL.[4] He spent the 2011 season playing for theSouth Fremantle Football Club in the WAFL, and in November 2011, he was appointed coach of South Fremantle, afterJohn Dimmer resigned.[5]
