Hawthorn will re-rookie Will Langford in next month’s rookie draft for list management purposes.
Given that he was contracted for the 2019 season, Hawthorn will rookie-list Langford in order to fulfil a portion of his renegotiated contract.
Effectively, it allows the club to make a place on the senior list available which they will fill through the upcoming drafts.
Langford will finish his career as a one-club player, having played 72 games in the brown and gold and winning a premiership in 2014.
