Barrass locked in for Hawks debut under Friday night lights
By Jake Santa Maria
Tom Barrass will make his Hawthorn debut in what will be the 2025 AFL season opener giving West Coast fans an early reminder of what they may be missing this season.
The Hawks will name their full Opening Round squad on Thursday night but couldn’t wait to confirm the debut of Barrass and fellow off-season recruit Josh Battle.
Hawthorn will feature in the AFL season opener for the first time this century after Brisbane’s clash with Geelong was rescheduled due to the approach of cyclone Alfred.
