He played his last Melbourne game in an exhibition match against the Brisbane Lions, after being traded.[2][3]

Hawthorn (2011–2014)

In Cheney's first at season at Hawthorn, he played in eight games and kicked his first goal in the AFL against Essendon. He played just six matches in 2012 and four in 2013, but in the latter year he won Box Hill's Best and Fairest in a premiership year for the club.[4] In 2014, Cheney played the opening nine games of the season as a key defender for the injury-hit Hawks, before failing to break into the side for the rest of the season. At the end of the season, he was traded to Adelaide in the last few minutes of the trading period.[5][6]
