Really strong finals series for Port last year.

Good size. I think we have been keen on him for a while.
Hopefully he can take the next step up.

While I was reasonably happy with the performance of Schade last year I feel this guy may have been the better option to recruit, as I really liked his performance with Port Melbourne this year. Think we have done well.

Has earned the opportunity with his performances at state league level and I like it when we award these types.

At the very least he'll add plenty to the spine of our VFL side and help keep them playing finals which as we've seen in recent years is a healthy recipe for AFL level success also.

You've got your chance now Brody so don't die wondering and give it your all at the pies.

Welcome and best of luck.

I like this selection.

Won a best and fairest as a key defender 2016.
Missed some games injured last year but came back and stood up in a GF.
Takes the best forward every week without any AFL talent around him for support.
Coached by one of the best defenders to play the game.

At worst, handy depth but I cant help but feel he will give it everything he has. I like that he has Linden Dunn around for support.

If it doesn't happen during the pre-season, Mihocek will leapfrog Dunn before the half way mark of the season.

This selection gives McLarty more time to develop too.

I reckon this bloke will be good will give Dunn and Chop a chop out. Good name sounds like a 70s crook from the wharfs.

He's a great story of perseverance and commitment.
Personally, I have long felt that we have under utilised the VFL as a recruiting resource, so I really hope he makes it and possibly encourages us to look at VFL footballers a bit more closely.
It's certainly been kind to Hawthorn over the years.
