Seamus Mitchell will make his long-awaited first appearance in the brown and gold this week when he suits up for Box Hill against Gold Coast on Saturday. 

Having been taken with Pick 29 in last year's national draft, Mitchell has been forced to bide his time in his first season at Waverley Park as he worked to overcome an ankle injury.

Touted as an exciting prospect with strong skills and football IQ, Mitchell comes into a side that is looking to post its fifth consecutive win. 

ROUND 16 TEAM: Silk's all set!

The Hawks currently sit in fourth place on the VFL ladder, while the Suns are in 14th.

Get down to Box Hill City Oval at 11am on Saturday to get a sneak peek of some of Hawthorn's future stars.
