He played all 22 games in his second season and kicked 17 goals.
Over the next few years, he began to make a name for himself as one of the finest wingers the game has ever seen, so much so that at the team's home ground, the Western Oval, the outer wing of the ground was named the "Doug Hawkins Wing".

Hawkins was named Captain of Footscray at the beginning of the 1990 season, taking over from Stephen Wallis, he captained the club from 1990 to 1993 and Hawkins was played uncharacteristically as a small forward, as opposed to the wing.

He kicked 38 goals in 1991 to win the club goalkicking and followed it up in 1992 with 42 goals.

Upon reaching 300 senior games, he was awarded AFL Life Membership in 1993.
His final season for Footscray came in 1994, with one of his last game's being a famous one, as he broke Ted Whitten's long-standing club record of 321 for Footscray, and Whitten was on hand to congratulate him.
However, after playing 329 games and kicking 216 goals for the Bulldogs, at the conclusion of the 1994 season his contract was not renewed, so he moved to the Fitzroy Football Club for the 1995 season; he played 21 games and kicked 11 goals for the club before announcing his retirement.

After retiring, Hawkins was awarded Father of the Year in 1998 and was one of the torch bearers for the 2000 Olympic Games.
When the Bulldogs' Team of the Century was announced in 2002, Hawkins was named on the wing as vice-captain.
He also enjoyed a brief career in media and ran for the Senate, as a member of Palmer United Party, in the 2013 Australian federal election.
Hawkins hailed from the industrialised, working class western suburbs of Melbourne, and although he was a North Melbourne supporter in his youth, competition zoning rules in effect prior to the adoption of a national draft, dictated that Hawkins' rights were 'zoned' to, given his suburb of residence was nearby Braybrook.
