Free agent officially joins Hawthorn on four-year deal

2022-09-30T11:07+10:00

Hawthorn has officially signed Port Adelaide wingman Karl Amon as an unrestricted free agent.

Amon’s switch to brown and gold went through on Friday morning with the 27-year-old headed to Waverley Park on a four-year deal.

Hawthorn national list and recruiting manager Mark McKenzie was “thrilled” to make the talented outside runner a Hawk.

“We are thrilled to officially welcome Karl to Hawthorn,” McKenzie said via a statement.

“It’s pleasing to hear Karl indicate his decision to commit to the club was based around the positive direction of the organisation and the exciting brand of football being developed.

“He is an incredibly gifted athlete and can be damaging by foot.

“With more than 100 games under his belt, we believe his skillset and experience will complement our young and developing list.”

Amon spent nine years with the Power, playing 124 games after making his debut in 2014.

The Victorian returns home having picked up 15 Brownlow votes in 2022 averaging almost 24 disposals a game.

Port Adelaide will receive pick no. 27 in the National Draft as compensation for losing Amon.
