Analysis Tom Hawkins - clearly not insignificant !

[pussygalore]

Stood up again in a big final. Not our best but arguably our most important.

He was awesome in a lot of moments. Definitely will get named in the list of best for us tonight.

 

[PhatBoy]

The Cyril fellaters love to talk about him playing the best 12 touch games ever etc.

Hawkins played one of the best 2 goal games from a key forward that I've seen tonight, and I've still got about half an hour of footage to watch.

Yes. I quietly thought before the game he was ready to explode in a finals series like 2011 again. Two more big games and he can be a vital part of another flag.

Massively important and was shitting bricks late when he got nailed by Burgers I think.

Thought he might have been concussed.

SO happy to see him get back out there..

A great contribution from Hawkins, I think he had 11 score involvements.

He leapt for a couple of marks, which was pleasing, rather than being static and just wrestling with his opponent. And that bone-crunching tackle he laid seemed to wrest the momentum our way at a critical time.

Was massive last night, loved his game. He got around the ground and was so strong in contests.

Came out jumping for the first time in two years. Where has that been?!

 

[MacStradbroke]

It is quite embarrassing that there is 38 pages on this topic. Guy's a star.

I disagree. Just finished watching the replay and he was our best and pretty comfortably I reckon. I loved Selwood and Guthrie's games but Hawkins had 11 score involvements and most of those were winning big contests not just being part of a chain.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Hawkins was massive. Provided contests, willed himself to draw a few contests that would have easily gone against us and kick 2 big goals.
As good a 2 goal game from a forward as you'd see IMO.

 

[patmatcat]

Geez I love this thread! I carnt stop gloating.

 

[maryjames]

He may win us the grand final.

 

[JUBJUB]

He may win us another grand final.

EFA

 

[Jemaine]

He may win us the grand final.

He's done it before, can't wait to see him do it again.

The serve I'll give that fat prick in the social club will be so big he'll probably have a heart attack.

Saving it for a special occasion he can do it 5 times a year. We would want to waste it in round 3 against Brisbane.

Definitely been saving his insignificance for the finals.

Yep. Hawk is so irrelevant

Didn't he win it a few years ago, he has definitely gone backwards

He's Geelong's only key forward, their primary goalscorer, and considered to be an elite key forward. I don't know if there's too much to boast about from a 7th-place finish in the B&F.

 

[cats_09]

He improved on his 9th place finish from last year

Yes, there is. The OP was full of shite in April and is so right now.
The premise of this was that he was 'becoming insignificant'... Clearly a load of baloney.

 

[Son_Of_God29]

Kick 55-60 goals this year with rubbish supply.....insignificant hey without him we would have been screwed

 

[BIGANT]

Under the circumstances TH he had a good yr despite the flogs, haters & knockers opinions...they are the insignificant's

Lends yet more weight to the view he plays the way the team asks him to play and well in the poorly conducive environment for a key forward kicking goals.

Well done Tom.

 

[Hoooops]

Really stepped up against GWS (Rnd 2) and Collingwood when no one else did. Some really good performances (5 x 4 goals, 1 x 6 goals) showed he can absolutely dominate when he gets good delivery.
