Thank you to SAM JORDAN and COMPLIANCE ROOFING & PLUMBING for Player Sponsorship of LUKE FLANAGAN for the 2024 season.
Luke had a great junior career with the Hawks, before playing a bit of senior footy with UFTG. He was back to Boronia in 2023 and slotted nicely into the backline, resulting in a shiny premiership medal around his neck! Good skills and run will see Luke playing good footy with the Hawks for years to come.
Thank you to ANTHONY SQUIRE and COLLECTIVE ENGINEERING for Player Sponsorship of CHRIS McDONALD for the 2024 season.
Macca is a life long Hawka from 2005 to 2024, racking up 76 junior games, 49 in the Colts and 151 senior games. Quick and hard at the contest, we all love to see Macca taking down the opposition in big tackles. A couple of premierships in Dev. Squad already and he is looking for another.
Thank you to PETER BENNETT and BRITTON TIMBERS for Player Sponsorship of NATHAN ALLEN for the 2024 season.
There is no player more loyal to the club than Nathan Allen, who started in Boronia Auskick in 1997, before moving on to Boronia Juniors in 2000. 24 years and 300 odd games later, he has a hard earned reputation for playing good strong footy and for overcoming adversity with injury and illness. He has two Reserves flags to his credit; he has captained Seniors, Reserves and Juniors; he has won league B&F’s in 18’s and Reserves; he has served on committee and is a regular and reliable volunteer. Most importantly, he has the respect of everyone at the club.
Thank you to BRAD SANDERS and McKENZIE’S TOURIST SERVICES for Player Sponsorship of JULIE WELLS for the 2024 season.
Julie joins Boronia’s Masters Team for 2024 after previously playing for Box Hill North and Chirnside Park. She has also played in the AFL Masters Carnival in 2022 and 2023. Please welcome Julie to the Hawks!
BHFNC would like to invite all past premiership players of the past 15 years back to the club on the day of our Senior Men’s unfurling of their 2023 Premiership Flag.
Every player who has played in a premiership wearing our Brown and Gold jumper has indeed left a legacy worthy of celebrating once again! Lachie McKernan, our 2018 Senior Men’s Premiership Captain has the duty of unfurling our 2023 flag.
Please get down to the Hawka and support him on this auspicious occasion. The club will be putting on some finger food in the rooms from 1:00pm to 2:00 pm and then we all head outside for the unfurling of the flag.
So make an effort to speak to a former teammate, tell them about the function, and get down to the club for a great afternoon of local footy! Be There!!
Thank you to EBONY MILLER and EBONY & IVORY COLLECTIVE for Player Sponsorship of LESHA PERRETT for the 2024 season.
Lesha joined Boronia in 2023 after 40 games with FTG. She was straight into the senior side for Round 1 and stayed there for the eventual win in the Grand Final. A very handy midfielder with 7 goals last season.
Thank you to MARK BURTON and HISBOS ELECTRICAL CONTRACTORS for Player Sponsorship of LUKE HANNON for the 2024 season.
Luke joined the club in 2017 after an outstanding junior career in both football and basketball. A former Eastern Ranges premiership player, captain and B&F winner, Luke has also had a similar impact at Boronia. A senior premiership player in 2018 and 2023; twice Bob Henry Medalist; and current vice captain and assistant coach. That’s a huge CV for a great player and club person.
Thank you to KRISTAN WOOD and ALLSTATE REFRIGERATION SERVICES for Player Sponsorship of MITCH MELLIS for the 2024 season.
One of three Mellis boys to play for Boronia, the talented offspring of Cam and Cath. Mitch is without doubt one the finest junior players in our Club’s history. He had an excellent career with Eastern Ranges, playing 33 games from 2017 to 2019. Mitch won the Pennington Medal for Ranges B&F in 2018. He won selection in the 2019 NAB League Team of the Year and gained third place in the 2019 Morrish Medal for the NAB League B&F. This resulted in his recruitment to Williamstown before returning to the Hawks in 2021. A 2023 premiership player and winner of the EFNL B&F, Mitch brings speed, endurance, class, and ferocity to every contest.
Thank you to MICHAEL BOURKE and MEMORABILIA MAGIC for Player Sponsorship of JACQUI PHILLIPS for the 2024 season.
Jacqui is in her 6th season with our Women’s Program and will play her 50th game for the club this year. A valued volunteer, Jax is likely to continue playing both Dev. Squad and Masters in 2024 as well as Friday night netball.
The Eastern Football Netball League Veterans and Masters Fixtures have been released.
