Marvin James Hicks (born 3 March 1960) is an Australian former rugby league player for the Penrith Panthers.
A Fairfield City junior, Hicks established himself as the Penrith five-eighth early in the 1980 NSWRFL season, having only got started in grade football that year.[1] He topped Penrith's try-scoring in 1980 with 12 tries, before suffering a setback the following year when he had his jaw broken in two places, forcing him to sit out the season.[2] In 1982, Hicks made his comeback in the opening round, but didn't feature again in first grade until the back end of the season, having once more broken his jaw.[3]
