Keenan Boi scouting report
Keenan Boi is the 2026 draft pool’s "high-velocity circuit breaker." Standing at 177cm, the Gippsland Power small forward and Hawthorn Next Generation Academy (NGA) prospect is an absolute package of dynamic flair, lightning speed, and raw instinct. Boi has put together a spectacular block of form in the early stages of the 2026 Talent League season, underlined by a lethal 13-disposal, 4-goal breakout against the GWV Rebels and a high-running 15-disposal, 2-goal display against the Brisbane Lions Academy. He is a genuine nightmare for opposition defenders when the ball is on the deck; he works exceptionally hard up the ground to drag his opponent out of position, before using explosive linear pace to burn them on the return transition. Capable of turning half-chances into miraculous goals from the boundary or drilling them from 50 meters out on the run, his x-factor is simply undeniable.

More from the scouting notes
Luke Breust represents a stellar, highly accurate alternative mapping for Boi’s exact brand of spatial manipulation and micro-second processing. At 177cm, Boi shares that identical low center of gravity and uncanny, deceptive body positioning inside the scoring arc. Like Breust, Boi doesn't just rely on open-field grass to hurt teams; his true magic lies in his spatial awareness in high-density congestion. His 4-goal clinic against the Rebels was pure soccer-style instincts: reading the ball off hands effortlessly, identifying the exact micro-second defensive gap, and executing highly polished, intuitive finishes under heavy contact. Combined with his Hawthorn NGA alignment, this exact masterclass in forward-craft intelligence makes the iconic modern Hawk his definitive structural twin.
