Hawthorn has made one change to its Round 11 line up ahead of Saturday’s clash against Adelaide.

Will Langford returns to the side following a solid VFL performance, while Tim O’Brien has been omitted.

“Adelaide presents a great challenge for us and as such we have opted for a slightly different set-up to our structure,” GM- Football Graham Wright said.

“Unfortunately O’Brien is the unlucky one to miss out this week as we decided to bring in a smaller option in Langford in order to get that team balance right.

“Langford put in a solid performance for Box Hill in their last match collecting 20 touches and a goal so we are confident he can come in a play his role,” he said.

Saturday night’s match proves significant for both sides as they look to claw their way back into the eight with the Hawks also set to celebrate Shaun Burgoyne’s significant milestone of 350 games.
