Hawthorn’s Will Day Suffers Suspected Shoulder Dislocation at Pre-Season Training

A scan will confirm the damage to guide his pre-season outlook.

Overview

  • Day left the session with his right arm supported in a makeshift sling and was assisted from the ground by a trainer.
  • Hawthorn believe the midfielder dislocated his shoulder, though the full extent of the injury remains unconfirmed.
  • The 24-year-old had only just resumed full training this week after missing much of 2025 with foot injuries following right-side collarbone surgery late in 2024.
  • Across the league, Melbourne’s Max Gawn is training with a splint on a fractured finger and Jack Viney is managing Achilles soreness, while Collingwood’s Dan McStay has a hamstring strain as Darcy Moore and Jeremy Howe deal with calf issues.
  • GWS expect Clayton Oliver to miss one to two weeks with a calf injury, with Jesse Hogan and captain Toby Greene slated to rejoin main training within the next fortnight.
