Report: The “watch this space” over a veteran Hawk ahead of the trade period

2022-08-17T13:37+10:00

There remains a “watch this space” on the future of Luke Breust at Hawthorn, according to AFL Media’s Callum Twomey.

The Hawks veteran has been in fine form this year, kicking 40 goals from 20 games so far with one round remaining.

While he remains contracted for next season, Twomey reports that he could be “open to the opportunities” that could come his way during the trade period.

Breust almost landed up at GWS in the dying stages of last year’s exchange window, before deciding to commit to Hawthorn for another season,

“There’s a real watch this space on the Hawks star,” Twomey told AFL Media.

“Last year he knocked back interest from the Giants in a deadline day decision.

“He is contract for next year, but rivals are aware he is keen to extend his AFL career beyond 2023. That could mean there are clubs who are willing to look at him during this trade period.

“I think he’d be open to the opportunities that be put to him over this year trade period. This is a really interesting watch on Breust and Hawthorn’s side of things.

“I think other clubs will come knocking this time around.”

The triple premiership Hawk is only 41 games away from notching up 300 games at AFL level, having become a fan-favourite at the club since arriving at the club through the rookie draft.
