caption_attribution_description: English: James Frawley, Australian rules footballer
context_page_description: James Frawley is a professional Australian rules footballer, playing with the Hawthorn Football Club in the Australian Football League. He previously played for the Melbourne Football Club from 2007 to 2014.
context_section_description: He debuted for the Demons in Round 9, 2007 and has played all of his games in defence. He played nine senior games in first year of AFL football.
  Not known for his kicking efficiency, Frawley has a tough and uncompromising defensive style of play.
  The 2010 season was a breakout year for Frawley who, at still only 21 years of age, became one of the premier defenders in the league. His season was capped off by being named in the back pocket for the 2010 All-Australian squad and finishing second to Brad Green in Melbourne's Best and Fairest.
  Coming off his breakthrough season in 2010, Frawley's 2011 season started with a setback as he was sidelined for up to three months after tearing his pectoral muscle in January.
  In 2014, under the new coaching structure of Paul Roos, Frawley began to play more of a forward role. His defensive efforts inside Melbourne's forward 50 was a contributing factor towards their on-field improvement.
