There's no reason as to why the Hawks won't excel and potentially push for the top 4. I don't think they will make top 4, but if these blokes along with Poppy who played just 15 games last season, Roughy, Gunners and Breust remain fit, the Hawks could once again prove to be a handful. Issac Smith in midfield, a few young lads rising up the last couple of years and Schoenmakers's versatility, the Hawkers look pretty handy. Rioli only played 7 games last year, and after the slow start Hawthorn were as good as many for a while. Beat the Swans twice, Adelaide in Adelaide, pushed Geelong where Smith choked again for the game winner. Drew with GWS also.
If and it's a big if, the Hawks leaders and stars remain healthy, they could do some damage to many teams and make a decent run in September.
Tom Mitchell - Champion. Don't forget how good he was last season.
The Hawks are the sleepers in 2018. Stay fit, and they'll make some noise.
