Hawthorn VFLW has announced the signing of Talia Radan ahead of the 2019 season.
Standing at 179cm tall, Radan will bolster the side’s key defensive stocks as it finalises preparations for its premiership defence.
The 30-year-old played 10 games across two seasons for Adelaide in the AFLW competition before joining Melbourne this year.
Football Operations and Strategy Manager Rob McCartney said the club was excited to welcome a player of Radan’s experience to the squad.
“We are thrilled to be adding Talia to our list ahead of the season,” McCartney said.
“She is a key defender whose key attributes are her athleticism and her competitiveness.
“We believe she will complement the rest of our backline well in 2019.”
