PREMIERSHIP Hawk Will Langford will return from injury for Box Hill Hawks on Saturday.
Langford has missed a month of football with a knee injury, and will line up for the Hawks when they take on Geelong at Simonds Stadium at 11am tomorrow morning.
The 23-year-old, who signed a four-year contract extension with Hawthorn earlier this week, is one of 14 AFL-listed players named in Box Hill's 27-player squad.
Forward Ryan Schoenmakers and defender Taylor Duryea have also been named after being omitted from Hawthorn's senior side, while the likes of Jonathan Simpkin, Jed Anderson, Brendan Whitecross and Kurt Heatherley will be looking to continue their strong VFL form as they press for senior selection.
The Hawks' clash with the Cats is an important one for the ladder-leaders, as they look to make certain of a top-two finish with just three rounds remaining in the VFL home-and-away season.
With consecutive wins heading into the match, the Hawks will be keen to add a third and build their form heading towards finals.
