Steve Johnson believes there’s no concern for Tom Hawkins and Geelong, despite the key forward going goalless over the past four weeks.
“He’ll find a way to hit the scoreboard,” Johnson told the Sunday Rub.
“You don’t need him to be Hawkins of 2011 … Geelong’s doing enough.”

Johnson argues an uneven pre-season has played a role in the veteran’s slow start to the season.
“Reasons behind that is partly due to his off-season, not at full fitness, had a foot injury, hotspot in the foot, missed big chunks of the pre-season”
It marks the first time in Hawkins’ 354-game career he has been kept goalless across a four-game span.
