Well, there's an asterisk to that given Geelong have played two extra games.
What's your point?He's leading the averages, in goals and goal assists.
What are people meant to be looking at champ?
More goals, more Colemans, more AAs, less brain farts.J Riewoldt?
Please.
is*Hawkins was a beast..great to see strength like that
Goals as a simple statistic do not prove entirely the worth of a forward. This is why Tom is so underrated.
Thank you for mentioning RougheadRicho, Roughead, Fev

JR had 9 straight seasons of 48+ goals and 102+ marks. Only two of those seasons did he have less than 18 goal assists.Factoring in injuries and their career arc, I'd say Hawkins has had longer, more consistent production (8 straight years and counting of 90 marks/45 goals/15 goal assists, something JK and Jack have never achieved at any stage), that looks like it could continue for a while yet.
What's your point?
I don't dispute that he'd be in the team currently.
JR had 9 straight seasons of 48+ goals and 102+ marks. Only two of those seasons did he have less than 18 goal assists.
He is having a very good year and been one of the backbones of a consistantly high standard hard to beat Geelong team for a decade or more so good on him.
My strongest memory of Hawkins was a night game at subi where the Eagles had a run on and Hawkins countered by leaping for a mark and landing on his head and it then took the medicos about 15 minutes to remove his unconscious carcass from the field thus stopping the Eagles run on.Very much a team orientated player.
Another dumb ass thread title.. He kicked a big bag of goals last night.. So the answer is of course he is 'right now.'
Of all forwards to have played in the history of last night's game, Hawkins is by far the best it's not even closeI'd go a step further and say he's the greatest full forward of all time if you only include last night's game.
Not if someone is making the specific argument that he's kicked the most goals.Well, leading the averages too takes the "Geelong have played two extra games" "asterisk" away, I would think.
Been great this year, but he's a 2.2 goal a game H&A player and a 1.5 goal a game finals player. Kennedy who he was compared to ITT is 2.5 and 2.3. Kennedy has copped plenty of criticism for kicking big bags of goals against weaker sides in Perth, but Hawkins regularly feasts on the ordinary teams Geelong normally play at KP.
QF last year, 0.4. SF 4.1 then suspended for the prelim for a dumb act. His team lost a close one and Tom Lynch kicked 5 for the Tigers.
2017 3 goals in 3 finals.
2016 2 goals in the QF win, 1 in the prelim loss.
2014 had a big game in the SF loss, 2013 didn't do much.
Whether it is his fault or not he mirrors his team a bit. Much better in the H&A season than finals. Kicking 5 and 7 in two 10 goal wins is great, but if the finals started tomorrow would he impose himself on a hard fought 10 goals vs 9 goals game?
