Career highlights

Mitchell Hahn (or Mitch, born 10 May 1981) is an Australian rules football player for the Western Bulldogs.

Originally from Brisbane in Queensland, he was chosen in the 1999 National AFL Draft at number 37, a trade the Bulldogs had received from Richmond in exchange for Leon Cameron. As at the end of the 2005 season he had played 91 games and was considered part of the Bulldogs' leadership group.

The 2006 Record describes Hahn as being "immensely strong" with a "bullocking style of play". During a win against the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba in Round 18 2006 He hyperextended and severely injured his left knee upon landing after a running jump and laid on the ground clutching it and the game was held up as he was taken off on a stretcher. The injury forced him to miss the rest of the season and earlier parts of 2007. In the same game in 2007 at Brisbane he kicked the most spectacular goal of his career, a right footed right boundryline goal from a long distance away. Hahn plays in number 8.
