The 24-year-old was added into the fold of the Autumn International squad just a few weeks ago and he has been rewarded for his hard work with a call into the starting XV.
Hill commented: “I just got my head down, got on the computers and learnt the calls, because you don’t want to turn up at training not knowing anything.
“I got my head in the laptop and all of the boys were really helpful to get me up to speed. I’ve been calling the lineouts in training and was set to call them last weekend, but didn’t get on.
“It’s all about knowing your role and going through the processes really. It’s a big responsibility but once you're on the pitch you blank it out and get on with the job.”
He continued: “The second rows have gone well so far so it’s up to me now to live up to their standards. I’ve got to put my head down, put in a good performance and who knows what will happen.
Hill will line-up next too British and Irish International Alun-Wyn Jones this Saturday. He added: “He’s a world class player and one of the best locks in the world.
“It’s a great opportunity to play alongside him and take some of that experience that he has and try and perform well myself.
“You know how good he is, and you pick up little things off him in training. I’d like to emulate everything from his game really!
“If you can pick things up from all the locks here and put them into your game, you will go a long way.”
