EVERYTHING Jonathan Simpkin touched turned to gold on Sunday.

Even clearing kicks from the backline by the Hawthorn-listed midfielder turned into goals.

The highlight was a thumping torp from the Box Hill defensive 50 that travelled more than 100m to bounce through for a goal.

Relishing the rare occasion of playing without a hard tag, the 27-year-old enjoyed a day out for Box Hill at Box Hill City Oval, with 36 telling disposals and three goals against the Northern Blues.

Box Hill coach Marco Bello said his star Hawk could do no wrong yesterday.

“That torp summed up his performance, I’m not sure he meant to kick it (a goal) but when you’re having that sort of day everything turns to gold,’’ he said.

“Simpkin has been copping the brunt of a tag the last month but the Blues went with Alex Woodward which freed Simpkin up to get the footy and he got plenty of it.

“He also hit the scoreboard which was crucial when the Blues would get a little roll on or a simple goal, we responded. He responded.’’

Simpkin, who played in Box Hill and Hawthorn premierships within days of each other in 2013, has played five VFL matches this season. He won a senior call-up in round seven and was part of the Hawks’ 105-point thrashing of Melbourne.
