About the author
Tom Hawkins is a renowned player for the Geelong Football Club. At 198cm tall, he is key to their goal-kicking line up. A country boy, he is the eldest son of Geelong champion, Jack Hawkins and was drafted by Geelong under the father–son rule. Even at school Tom was in top spot in his football team, and his junior accolades include national and state representation, the Larke Medal as the AFL Under-18 Championships most valuable player, and All-Australian selection.
Tom made his AFL debut in 2007 and was rewarded with an AFL Rising Star nomination. He has since become a three-time AFL premiership player, a Coleman Medalist, an All-Australian full forward, a Carji Greeves Medallist as the club best and fairest player, an eleven-time leading goalkicker for Geelong, and a recipient of the former AFL Army Award—awarded to a player who produces significant acts of bravery or selflessness during a season.
Tom played his 350th match for Geelong in April 2024 and 4 goals taking his haul to 790 career goals.
