Wodonga resident Harry Jones was selected by Hawthorn with the 7th pick in the 2017 AFL Rookie Draft.
[1] Jones was recruited as a midfielder but the club has helped him develop his defensive game.
[2] In his second year on the list in 2019, Jones was a pre-season stand-out; he was expected to make his senior debut but a season-ending knee injury (PCL) ruled him out.
Jones made his AFL debut in round 5, 2020, against Greater Western Sydney at Spotless Stadium.
He was awarded the 2021 John Law Medal, the club's best and fairest player in the VFL.
