Meet the Hawks behind the SBL Video Camera
Team Hawks has a team of dedicated game night staff who help out behind the scenes each and every week. Their contributions to the club are valued and we want to share the great work they’re doing. This week we’re paying thanks to our video superstars Finn Hombergen and Ryan Crisp.
What exactly do you do on game nights?
Finn: Film the women’s and men’s games with Ryan. I also like to think I’m a great commentator and consistently take Brownlow votes for both games. Currently leading is Travis Hayto (Best Benchwarmer in the League), followed by AJ (The Sniper) Majstrovich.
Ryan: I video the games and eat all of Finn's Chips.
How long have you helped out on game nights for?
Finn: This is my third year of doing it
Ryan: Since the start of this season
What made you want to help out on game nights?
Finn: It looked like a pretty cool job, and the Hawks is my club so I wanted to help out.
Ryan: Being able to do it with friends and getting to watch good quality basketball.
Favourite things about being involved?
Finn: You get to have a good time with your mates as well as watching the game, and get some free food and drinks as well which is always good.
Ryan: Watching great basketball for free with Finn.
You also play basketball for Team Hawks – tell us about that.
Finn: I play in the Under18-2s. We aren’t doing too well but we have Ryan so the championship is in the bag.
Ryan: I play for Under 18-2s. It’s been a slow start to the season but we are improving every game and we have Finn so the championship is in the bag.
Fave things about playing basketball? Favourite players?
Finn: Setting up teammates is always fun, not when the big men can’t catch though
My favourite player is Deron Williams, because he is a great facilitator and leader. My other favourite players are Ryan Crisp, and Daniel Timms. The hardest player I’ve had to defend would be Henry Roberts as he as the ability to hit 3’s from anywhere and can also get past you to the ring and dunk.
Ryan: It’s a fun thing to do with all my friends and my hero is Finn – he’s a sniper.
