Cooper Hynes is a classic example of the modern AFL prototype athletic footballer: tall, fast, strong and capable of anything. It takes a natural footballer to provide a highlight reel full of flashy skills, but athletes like Hynes can be taught to play top-level football to make use of their physical talents. He has played a variety of roles at the Bulldogs, not quite a key forward but more of a tough matchup like Will Hayward; he has spent much time in recent weeks running off a wing. Perhaps such players don't have a high ceiling of output. They are highly useful roleplayers.
