Club name changes

Hey everyone, what are your thoughts on whether or not this article should be moved to Hawks (NBL)?
I was originally thinking about seeing if they settle on a new name to serve the region the club now covers by the start of the season, but I think they would've announced that in the press release earlier this week. So at the moment I'm leaning to Move the article. Besides, by the sounds of it the club won't be referred to as Illawarra now so there's not much point in having the article named that.DylanI00 (talk) 08:52, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I support the move per your sentiments. The statement by the NBL commissioner regarding the name change is sufficiently definitive. CalDoesIt (talk) 10:55, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support It's not ideal but I suppose it's got to be done. DaHuzyBru (talk) 11:48, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What a stupid move by the new owners. The Hawks? Which city or region are they representing? Who is going to support a team with such a weird name? If they reckon the market in Wollongong or the Illawarra region is too small, just relocate to Southern Sydney or Canberra and change their name to the Southern Sydney (Canberra) Hawks. 2001:8003:9008:1301:1C25:BDE:1AB4:4FCB (talk) 05:19, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is fine. I usually see The Hawks on the NBL website. Giacontigers (talk) 11:21, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
