It didn't look like much, he must have twisted it or hit the ground too hard.

I'm no doctor, but could the jarring when he put his hand out, then cause the bone to crack due to the sudden force? I've broken a wrist before from landing similarly, except it were on concrete so not sure if you could say the same.

I've broken my wrist when landing on sand, except I had my arms behind me.

Yes. I said sand.

Hawkins must have a voodoo doll or something. Talia (who kept him to 1 goal after taking over from Rutten), McPharlin, Brian Lake, have all pulled out through injury before the last 3 Geelong games. (assuming Geelong win tonight).

And for Hawks games he drives S'makers to games to make sure he arrives safely.

It looked so innocuous but the pain on the face said it all.

Agree. Seeing him being taken off I thought a guy landed on it or something, but there really didn't seem to be much in it. Hope it heals well and he comes back as good/better than this year. good young player.

Terrible for ADelaide though, been a key for them this year
