Hodge, 32, is expected to retain the captaincy in his 16th AFL season while Burgoyne (33) enters his 17th and Gibson (32) his 13th year.

All three have been key players in the club’s premiership three-peat and a possible four-peat.

Hawthorn recruiting manager Graham Wright said re-signing the experienced trio was an easy decision.

“Luke, Shaun and Josh are all integral to our football club,” Wright told the club website.

“Importantly all three individually were very keen to play on and their form warranted it, so it was an easy decision to make.

“Each of them plays an invaluable role for us both on and off the field.

“Each of these guys has given incredible service to our football club and we are thrilled that they will be going around again in 2017.”
