Overall, he played three times in the 2nd team in 1974/75. In the 1975/76 season, Hanke played three point games for the 1st Hansa team, but also in the GDR league because the Rostockers were relegated from the league in the previous season. In the rest of the time, Hanke played with the 2nd team in the third-class district league Rostock .

Towards the end of the 1976/77 season, Hanke was also used with the first team in the major league. He made his debut there on March 12, 1977 as a substitute in the match of the 18th matchday between FC Karl-Marx-Stadt - Hansa Rostock (3-0). His other league games completed on the 19th and 22nd game day, where he was only used in the second game over the full 90 minutes. At the end of the season Hansa rose again from the league. In the following GDR league season 1977/78 Hanke was only used in three point games of the first team during the first half of the season. In May 1978 he was drafted into military service. Since he did not return to FC Hansa Rostock, he achieved the following balance there:

After a transition period with the 2nd team, Hanke switched to the company sports club Motor Stralsund in 1987 , where he remained active as a recreational athlete until 1990.
