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.

Rappa is back to Boronia after a year off in 2023 and will be bringing back some of his magic in front of goal. A 2018 senior premiership player and always a hard match up for the opposition.

Big Robbo came to the Hawks from the VAFA in 2010 and has amassed 212 goals in his 155 games. He has been a huge contributor in the 2018 and 2023 flags; but most of all, he is a great club person and a heart and soul player for the Hawks.
