Too small to play on the real bigs and too slow to play on anyone else. His role is to do just enough to allow a teammate to come over the top. That's not working. 51 games and a premiership Medal is pretty impressive for someone of his ability.

In the last 2 weeks the opposition full forwards have taken 4 marks each and kicked only 6 of their team’s 32 goals. Considering that one is in consideration for best full forward over the last 5 years (with over 300 goals including numerous bags of 7) that is barely an average return. I humbly suggest that something is working . what we need to find out is why did the opposition get their other 26 goals.

I am not convinced that anyone is even looking.

Hipwood might have had 4 marks but he also had 2.5 as a key forward in the wet. Hawkins is not so great that keeping him to only 4 goals is an amazing achievement to cheer about. If he looked competent last night but give up 4 goals you might have a case but he clearly did not.

picasso’s work doesn’t look competent - it is history that counts. Roberts has given up 6 goals in 2 games. when Crozier gave up 5 in one game it didn’t generate a response here.

300 goals in 5 and a half seasons means Hawkins is great.
