Main article: 2014 AFL season

The Hawthorn Football Club's 2014 season was its 90th season in the Australian Football League (AFL). Hawthorn entered the season as the defending AFL Premiers.

Overview

Following speculation throughout the 2013 season, Lance Franklin announced on 1 October 2013 that he was going to leave the club to join the Sydney Swans on a nine-year, multimillion-dollar contract as a free agent.[1] Hawthorn subsequently received pick 19 in the AFL Draft as compensation, despite the club requesting a higher draft pick from the AFL.[2] The club also traded Shane Savage to St Kilda, receiving Ben McEvoy in return.[3] In March, draftee Dayle Garlett resigned from the club, citing homesickness and being unable to cope with the demands of AFL football and training.[4]

Notable events

On 26 May 2014, head coach Alastair Clarkson was hospitalised after being diagnosed with Guillain–Barré syndrome. Brendon Bolton was later appointed as the acting head coach on an indefinite basis ahead of former Carlton coach Brett Ratten.[5][6]
