Main article: 2016 AFL season

The Hawthorn Football Club's 2016 season is its 92nd season in the Australian Football League (AFL).

Club summary

The 2016 AFL season is the 120th season of the VFL/AFL competition since its inception in 1897; having entered the competition in 1925, it is the 92nd season contested by the Hawthorn Football Club. Tasmania and iiNet continue as the club's two major sponsors, as they have done since 2006 and 2013 respectively,[1][2] while Adidas continues to manufacture the club's on-and-off field apparel, as they have done since 2013.[3] Hawthorn will continue its alignment with the Box Hill Hawks Football Club in the Victorian Football League, allowing Hawthorn-listed players to play with the Box Hill Hawks when not selected in AFL matches.

Senior Personnel

Alastair Clarkson continues as the club's head coach for the twelfth consecutive season, while Luke Hodge continues as the club's captain for the sixth consecutive season. Both have held their respective positions since 2005[4] and 2011,[5] respectively.

There were several changes to the coaching panel following the end of last season, the most notable of which was Brendon Bolton's departure from the club towards the end of the season to become the head coach of the Carlton Football Club.[6] On 20 October 2015, recent Richmond retiree Chris Newman joined the club as a development coach, replacing Damian Carroll who was promoted to assistant coach alongside Alastair Clarkson.[7]

On 2 February 2016, Andrew Newbold stepped down as the club's president, and was replaced in the role by vice-captain Richard Garvey.[8]

The full fixture was announced on 29 October 2015.[14] The Melbourne Cricket Ground once again acts as Hawthorn's primary home ground, hosting seven of the club's eleven home games, with four games to be played at their secondary home ground, Aurora Stadium, in Launceston.[15] The club's four games at Aurora Stadium are against St Kilda, Fremantle, Gold Coast and Carlton in rounds 4, 8, 14 and 19 respectively,[15] while the club plays the West Coast Eagles, North Melbourne, Sydney, Richmond and Melbourne twice during the regular season.[16]

For the second consecutive year, and the third in the past four years, the club opened its season with the traditional Easter Monday clash against Geelong at the Melbourne Cricket Ground; it was also be the first time since 2011 in which it started a season with an away match,[17] and, due to the weighted rule, it was the only time the two teams met during the regular season.[18] Its first home game came the following round, when they faced the West Coast Eagles at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in the 2015 AFL Grand Final rematch. Their match against Greater Western Sydney, scheduled for Round 6, will once again be played at Spotless Stadium in Sydney,[19] while the club will travel to the Gabba for the first time since 2008 to take on the Brisbane Lions in the AFL's Indigenous Round.[20] In addition, the club will play consecutive Thursday night away matches against Port Adelaide and Sydney in Rounds 16 and 17 respectively, and play six Friday night matches throughout the regular season.[15][16]
