Young is a wingman who has improved in his three seasons in the AFL. He missed only one match last season and developed into an important player for the Hawks as an outside running wingman. Young is one of the few current players to prefer to kick long when in possession, with this part of his game allowing him to regularly pump the ball inside 50. His impact on the scoreboard improved significantly in 2007, directly assisting in 27 scores for teammates.
