We've re-drafted the first round of the 2004 AFL draft.
It was the draft that created the core of Hawthorn's success throughout the 2010s, also unearthing a host of other prominent stars of the game.
Here is Zero Hanger's re-drafted first round of the 2004 AFL national draft, including those picked up in the rookie draft:
4. Jordan Lewis (Richmond)
Jordan Lewis is, so far, one of only two players amongst the 2004 draft class to play 300 games or more. Lewis was originally taken by Hawthorn with pick seven in the draft and played 264 games for the Hawks playing in the midfield and across half-back.
Lewis will go down in history as one of Hawthorn's greatest players, featuring in all four of Hawthorn's modern-day premierships (2008 and 2013-15), winning the club best-and-fairest and earning All-Australian honours in 2014 and serving as vice-captain throughout his career. After 12 seasons at the club, Lewis was traded to Melbourne where he has played 53 games in three seasons and he is still considering playing on for another year.
