Hardwick (hamstring tightness) has been declared available for Round 19 against Adelaide.
ANALYSIS
Hardwick missed the last two weeks with muscular issues but should be fully fit against the Crows. With over 20 disposals in two of his last three games, Hardwick could hold decent value at cheaper price.

May 15, 2021
Hardwick collected 28 disposals (21 kicks, seven handballs) in addition to making seven marks and five tackles during Saturday's 87-80 loss to North Melbourne.
ANALYSIS
Hardwick occasionally puts up huge performances and tied for the team lead in disposals during this narrow loss. There aren't many players from Hawthorn who can seriously make an impact in fantasy each week, but Hardwick could be that guy if his value doesn't rise too much after this performance.
31 disposals, 15 marks in defeat
DHawthorn Hawks
March 28, 2021
Hardwick garnered 31 disposals and 15 marks as Hawthorn fell to Richmond 78-49 on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Hardwick not only recorded a career-high for disposals and kicks (27) against Richmond, but too set a personal-best for marks after tallying seven in the match's final quarter of play. The AFL's new rules have undoubtedly played in the favor of the Hawthorn defender, leaving the 24 year-old averaging a captivating 113 fantasy points through his first two showings of 2021 and pacing all players at his position to this point in the season.
