Cooper Hodge, the son of Hawthorn great Luke, is eligible to join the Hawks or Brisbane in next year's draft, and Hawks coach Sam Mitchell says he does not want to put pressure on the teenager.

"The thing with a guy like Coop is he's still a young man and because of his dad's fame and accolades, there's a lot more pressure on him. The last thing I want to do is add anything to that," Mitchell said.

"He's great, he's a really energetic sort of kid. He's quiet, he's a young lad, very respectful. He's going to be a nice talent."
