NEW HERITAGE / CLASH JUMPER

A huge thank you to our longstanding Silver Sponsor Janine Rule and @stockdaleleggo_ferntreegully for supporting our Women’s Program by funding our brand new Heritage style clash jumper!

Janine was at training last night to present the jumpers, which will be worn for the first time against South Belgrave in a twilight game on Saturday.

Thanks again to Janine and to Sammi Dunkinson, our VP of Women’s Programs.


MASON STORR | COMEBACK GAME!

Boronia Hawks FNC is absolutely delighted to welcome Mason Storr back to the senior team after injury delayed his start to the season.

In fact, this will be Mayo’s first senior game for the Hawka since his debut season in 2019 while playing Under 17’s. Please wish him all the best! Thanks to Player Sponsor Allstate Refrigeration Services. #boroniahawks #backtoboronia


MILESTONE | 50 GAMES FOR JOSH BEGLEY

The celebrations continue this week as Josh Begley hits the 50-game milestone for the club!

Since arriving at the Hawka, “Begs” has been nothing short of sensational. With his experience at both AFL and VFL levels, he has brought a professional edge and incredible talent to our senior side.

Beyond his skills on the field, Josh is a champion off it:

? A brilliant role model for our junior players.

? Always the first to give back to the club community.

? An absolute game-changer on match day.

Well done, Joshy! We’re sure you’ve got at least another 100 in the tank to catch up to Harry’s tally! ? Go well this weekend, Begs! #boroniahawks

Josh is proudly supported by Bruce Begley and Begley Hobba & Manton. We appreciate your fantastic support of Josh and the club!


MILESTONE: 150 GAMES FOR HARRY BURGESS

This week, we celebrate a true legend of the club. Our much-loved men’s skipper, Harry Burgess, runs out for his 150th match in the brown and gold! Harry isn’t just a player; he is the heartbeat of the team. His impact on our history is already legendary:

? Triple Premiership Player and Double Premiership Captain

? Dual Bob Henry Medallist

???? Our Club’s Longest Serving Captain

Harry truly epitomises what it means to be a Hawka. His leadership, dedication, and service have built a legacy that will inspire the next generation of players for years to come.

Go well, H! Thank you for everything you’ve given to this club. Let’s get the win for the skip! #boroniahawks @teammedicalsupplies


INTERLEAGUE TEAM | ZAC PAPWORTH

Massive congrats to Zac Papworth on scoring a spot in the U15 EFNL Interleague final squad!

Well done to all club members who took part in trials, and a special mention to Ellie Wallis who had to pull out, we’re confident you would’ve smashed the final trials. Game details incoming once they’re confirmed. Top work Zac, we’re beyond proud!


SENIOR DEBUT | HARRIET KNIJFF

Congratulations to Harriet Knijff for making her Senior Debut yesterday. Harriet has moved to Victoria to be a part of Port Melbourne’s VFLW program, after playing with University of Queensland in the QAFLW.

Harriet is a strong, physical mid and we love having her in brown and gold! Please make her welcome at the Hawka!


100 GAMES | SEAN BRAMSTEDT

Sean Bramstedt aka Bramma will take the field for his 100th game for Boronia Hawks on Saturday.

Known as a crafty forward, he has booted 186 goals in brown and gold. With 117 games at East Burwood and 11 colts games at Forest Hill, he can expect to play Boronia Vets for another 20 odd years and many more goals! Great work Sean – we love your footy!


SENIOR DEBUT | JON WADE

Congratulations to Jon Wade on senior selection this week after playing well each week in the 19’s. Jon joined us after two strong seasons with Waverley Blues, earning multiple Team of the Week selections and continuing to impress at a high level while still being U19 eligible.

In 2025, Jon was part of the Oakleigh Chargers program, further developing through the elite pathway. His junior career includes multiple B&F’s, along with a Runner-Up League Best and Fairest in U16A. Get along on Saturday and wish him well! Thank to Repurpose It for supporting our Under 19’s team.
