Mark L. Williams is an indigenous former Australian rules footballer who played with Hawthorn and Essendon in the Australian Football League. He was traded from the Hawks to the Bombers during the 2009 AFL trade week. Making his debut in 2002 after being drafted by the Hawks at pick 43 in the 2000 AFL Draft, Williams was a small forward and came of age in 2005 when he was used as a full forward where he kicked 63 goals, making him the leading goal kicker of the club. Known for his flamboyance, pace and use of the "shotgun", a trademark celebration he used to use after kicking a goal, Williams was one of a number of young players at Hawthorn. Williams finished 2006 with a total of 60 goals and once again was the leading goalkicker at the Hawks. A knee injury cut short his 2007 season after only four games leaving him stranded on 13 goals. Williams attracted controversy in 2008 when he made a choking gesture targeted at then-Port Adelaide coach, Mark Williams. This was in reference to the then-Port Adelaide coach's famous choking gesture when the Power 2004 Premiership. Williams was warned that he would be shown the door if such action occurred again.
