Hawthorn has made two changes for its Week 6 game against the Gold Coast Suns tomorrow evening at home.
The two inclusions are 20-year-old forward Bridie Hipwell who was managed for last week's clash, and first-year Hawk Jess Vukic, who returns having missed the past two games after debuting in Week 1.
Hawthorn General Manager of Football Operations Max Bailey welcomed the two youngsters back into the line-up.
“Bridie and Jess are exciting additions to our side to take on Gold Coast tomorrow night,” Bailey said.
“Both players bring a competitiveness and energy to the team as we navigate an important part of our season.”
The Hawks will be aiming for their fifth win of the season when they take on the Suns tomorrow night.
