Sporting career

A former Meath minor footballer, in 2016 Nash was offered a Leinster rugby union academy contract, but instead opted to move Down Under.[1] Nash joined Hawthorn in late 2016 as a Category B rookie, having already represented Ireland U18 rugby side. He made his Box Hill debut in 2017. Nash suffered a severe hamstring injury that cause him to miss half his first season. He was elevated to the main Hawthorn list in July 2018.

AFL career

He made his debut for Hawthorn in the eleven point win against Geelong at MCG in round twenty one of the 2018 season.[2] His form was promising enough that the selectors kept him in the side and he played in two finals.
