Hawthorn has delisted Mitch Thorp and rookies Haydn Kiel and Tim Walsh.
"Unfortunately, Mitch has been limited by injury in the first three years and as a consequence, has had little opportunity to play senior footy at Hawthorn," recruiter Chris Pelchen said.
"Mitch requested to be considered for a trade, but unfortunately this was not able to be achieved during trade week."
"After further consultation with Mitch and his management, we felt it was best for Mitch's interests to seek a fresh start at another club."
