Senior coach Chris Scott said he was concerned following the game but did not want to speculate on the severity of the injury except that it was a mid-foot issue.
Hawkins is expected to miss 6-8 weeks (via Geelong on Tuesday).
“Tom has already been in the Club today and commenced his off-foot training, he’ll remain in a boot for the next couple of weeks before progressing based on clinical signs.”
“Tom is in a positive and optimistic mindset and we are confident he will give himself the best chance to have an impact later in the season.” Geelong GM of Football Andrew Mackie.
