Blaze cut import Hawkins

No surprises here - the 0-9 Gold Coast Blaze have cut injured import Juaquin Hawkins.

The Blaze made the decision as a result of Hawkins, who missed the past four games with a bone spur, succumbing to another injury.

The man known as the `Hawk' was set to miss the next eight weeks with an inflamed arch tendon.

It is a large chunk of the season and the Blaze decided to release the man who recovered from a stroke last season.

It will be interesting to see what sort of replacement they go for.

But surely you cannot cut an import.
Don't they 'all' sign no-cut contracts.
Another stroke of bad luck?

I read julius hodge's blog and he said he has offers from several Australian teams does this mean Gold Coast may have or will lure him to the Coast????

Yeah, it's not as though Ballinger, Rickert and Redhage are even in the top tier of imports...
