DAVID HALE has probably never enjoyed his football more than in the last four years.

Since crossing from the Kangaroos at the end of 2010, the forward/ruckman has played in a preliminary final, two Grand Finals and won a premiership.

It is more success than he could have dreamed of when he made the difficult decision to switch clubs.

But it hasn't been a complete shock.

As the Hawks lock-in the valuable ruckman/forward with another contract extension until the end of 2015, Hale reveals he was lured to the Hawks four years ago by the chance to play in a successful team.

Hale revealed Coach Alastair Clarkson had a vision for Hawthorn that included him playing a key role.
