Hawking was a pretty average reserve grader at south's and didnt really shine with cody next to him so I doubt Dylbags is going to help him shine. I think we are in for a tough sunday arvo again, this will be the 3rd Sunday ch9 game in a row plus next week against manly. For god sake can they put us on at 6pm on a Friday when no one is watching
They should put us on at lunchtime on Monday on channel 5A
Hawkins average reserve grader at Souths, you do realise in '23 he was the NSW cup player of the year.
That's the worry and I kinda agree with Wiz here if he was that and he had a future why let him walk.What I do suspect they have someone better in the wings and maybe they see this guy as at his ceiling which is fine but I feel hes depth at best like Volkman and Asi before him.
They also let Illias walk before this guy also so there churning 7s until they find the right guy and have been very clear in doing so.There's a real shortage of class halves in the nrl.We are about to lose one but have locked up the other.
He might not be anything special but he is something Asi and Volkman aren't and that's a real halfback. He won't only give the team better direction, his kicking should be better (choices and execution)
Hawkins is your average old fashioned 7 who can play 6 ok. He has a better kicking game than Volkman and Brown so that's the main thing we should take out of it.
Ok that may be the case, there are a lot of players that excel in reserves but look very average in first grade and can't handle the step up. Don't get me wrong I'm hoping he has a cracker but I'm just going by what I recall from him at Souths
Dafuq is Ryles doing? He might ne a plant from a rival club

Not sure if it's mentioned but JAC and matto both haven't been named in the cup team. Suggest some late inclusions
