I'm not quite sure what exactly Hankinson did wrong i really thought he was coming good when sarginson was out injured,he has come straight back into the team whilst he is still carrying the 3 injuries yet a fully fit Hankinson is made to play at Swinton,also hopefully Marshall is fit and replaces Burgess
Hankinson was looking more than capable to be a starting centre, I believe additionally with more game time he would have only improved as partnerships with his wingman would develop as well as playing at that level consistently.
I guess Hankinson is seen as cover, even with Sarge leaving at the end of the season and Hank saying; he can only be seen as cover. Hopefully next season with no more Sarge, it'll be a clean slate for all with Lam awarding the centre spots to whoever looks the part after a great pre-season. Realistically I can see Hankinson, Bobby and possibly Hardaker all looking for the spot with Gilly as a shoe in the other spot.
