Review

Stratton had a very strong year in 2018, playing in every game bar one- the semi final against Melbourne.

The 29-year-old continued to prove his reputation as one of the competition’s most disciplined defenders.

The stopper had an especially strong second half of the season where he was a pivotal member of the Hawks’ six-win streak to finish the home and away season.

The three-time premiership player was exceptional against Essendon in Round 20, where he gathered 19 possessions, 11 marks and eight one-percenters.

Stratton finished seventh in the Peter Crimmins Medal count.
