Will Day Injury Scare Rocks Hawks as Training Incident Raises Fresh Fears

Good morning and we begin today with concerning news out of Hawthorn’s pre-season camp, where one of the club’s brightest stars has been struck by another injury scare.

Will Day, the Hawks’ dynamic midfielder, was forced off the training track after appearing to injure his right shoulder. Witnesses say Day left the field supported by trainers, clearly in discomfort and cradling that shoulder as he made his way off. Training stopped. Attention shifted instantly. And for Hawthorn fans, the worry was immediate.

Right now, the full extent of the injury is still unclear. Medical staff are arranging scans and answers are expected later, but the early signs are enough to raise alarms. And that’s because this isn’t just any injury. It appears to be the same shoulder that caused Day serious trouble in the past.

For a bit of context, Will Day’s career has already been heavily disrupted by injuries. His 2024 season ended early after a significant shoulder and neck issue and last year he spent a long stretch sidelined with a serious foot problem. In fact, he missed most of the season, returning briefly before being ruled out again. So when Hawks supporters saw him helped from the track today, the sense of déjà vu was impossible to ignore.

This moment is particularly cruel given how well Day’s pre-season had been shaping up. Coaches and teammates had spoken about his sharpness, his confidence and his hunger to finally string together a full year of football. At just 24, he’s widely viewed as a cornerstone of Hawthorn’s future midfield. Powerful, composed and explosive around the contest, he’s the kind of player teams build around.

If this injury turns out to be serious, the impact could be significant. For Hawthorn, it would mean adjusting plans yet again, both tactically and mentally. For Day himself, it would be another frustrating pause in a career that promises so much but has been repeatedly interrupted.

Right now, there’s caution rather than panic. The club will wait for scans and no timeline has been set. But the mood has clearly shifted. Pre-season optimism has been replaced with nervous anticipation.

For now, all eyes are on those medical results. Hawthorn, their fans and Will Day himself will be hoping this is only a minor setback, not another long road back.

We’ll bring you updates as soon as more is known.
