The 2017 season was the Hawthorn Football Club's 93rd season in the Australian Football League and 116th overall, the 18th season playing home games at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the 17th season playing home games at the newly named University of Tasmania Stadium, the 13th season under head coach Alastair Clarkson, and the 1st season with Jarryd Roughead as club captain. This was the first time since 2013 that Hawthorn didn't enter the season as the defending premiers.

Hawthorn started the season 0–4 for the first time since 1998. Hawthorn failed to match their 17–5 record from 2016, finishing in 12th with a {{Win–loss record|w=10|l=11|d=1}} record. With Hawthorn's 7 point loss to {{AFL Car}} in round 22, they were eliminated from finals contention for this first time since 2009. This was also the first time since 2005, Hawthorn were defeated by Carlton. This was also the first time under Clarkson that no player kicked 50 goals for the season.

Club summary

==Fixture summary==

{{See also|2017 AFL season}}

The full fixture was announced on 27 October 2016.{{cite web|url=http://www.hawthornfc.com.au/news/2016-10-27/hawthorn-welcome-2017-fixture|title=Hawthorn welcome 2017 fixture|publisher=hawthornfc.com.au|date=27 October 2016|access-date=30 November 2016}} The Melbourne Cricket Ground once again acted as Hawthorn's primary home ground, hosting six of the club's eleven home games, with four home games played at their secondary home ground, University of Tasmania Stadium, in Launceston, and one home game played at Etihad Stadium against the Western Bulldogs in round 23.{{cite web|url=http://www.hawthornfc.com.au/news/2016-11-30/2017-replacement-games|title=2017 Replacement games|publisher=hawthornfc.com.au|date=30 November 2016|access-date=30 November 2016}} The club's opponents for the four games in Launceston were {{AFL|StK}}, {{AFL BL}}, {{AFL GWS}} and {{AFL NM}} in rounds six, eight, 16 and 21 respectively, while the club played {{AFL Ade}}, {{AFL Col}}, {{AFL Gee}}, {{AFL GC}} and {{AFL Syd}} twice during the regular season.

The Hawks began the 2017 season with a 25-point loss to {{AFL Ess}}, which welcomed six of its banned players back from a season-long suspension which had spanned the entire 2016 season, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in round one;{{cite web|url=http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-10-23/essendon-hawthorn-among-bluckbuster-round-one-matches|title=Dons-Hawks clash highlights blockbuster opening round|publisher=AFL.com.au|first=Dinny|last=Navaratnam|date=23 October 2016|access-date=23 October 2016}} due to the weighted rule, it was the only time the clubs met during the regular season. The club's first home game came the following round, when it hosted 2016 finalists {{AFL Ade}} at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in round two. It travelled to Adelaide twice for matches against {{AFL PA}} and Adelaide (for a second time) in rounds 11 and 14 respectively, while it also travelled to the Gold Coast, Sydney and Perth once each, in rounds three, ten and eighteen respectively. Additionally, it played three Friday night matches (two against {{AFL Syd}} and one against the Western Bulldogs) and two Thursday night matches (both at the Adelaide Oval) during the regular season, while ten of the club's 21 matches were broadcast on free-to-air.

Based on its finishing position from 2016, Hawthorn's fixture was rated the second-most difficult (only behind {{AFL GWS}}) by The Age; it was the fifth consecutive season in which it has been dealt either the most or second-most difficult fixture of any club.{{cite web|url=http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/afl-fixture-2017-tough-for-gws-giants-but-difficult-draw-neednt-mean-doom-and-gloom-20161027-gscf3a.html|title=AFL fixture 2017: Tough for GWS Giants but difficult draw needn't mean doom and gloom|publisher=The Age|first=Rohan|last=Connolly|date=27 October 2016|access-date=30 November 2016}}
