HAWTHORN has delisted Lachie Bramble, Fergus Greene and Ned Long less than 24 hours after bringing four fresh  players in during the Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period. 

The Hawks completed deals for forwards Jack Gunston, Jack Ginnivan and Mabior Chol on Deadline Day and also added former Essendon rookie Massimo D'Ambrosio in the last minutes of Wednesday's trade window. 

Greene, a former Western Bulldog, kicked 15 goals from 11 games after joining the Hawks as a delisted free agent at the end of 2022.
