Dylan Dower has recommitted to the Hawks for 2026!
A 2024 premiership player, Dylan has improved every year at Boronia. He also won the Reserves Best & Fairest in 2023 and the Colts Best & Fairest in 2017. Tough, consistent, and team first, he’s a huge asset in the brown and gold. Great to have you locked in, Dylan!
We’re delighted to announce that Nathan Hare has recommitted to the Hawks for the 2026 season!
A 2× senior premiership player and Under 19s premiership player, Harey’s resume is loaded with honors including the EFNL Under-19 League Best & Fairest and the Blue Ribbon Medal as Best on Ground in the 2018 Grand Final. He also claimed the Under-19 Best Finals Player award that year and has since chalked up 50 senior games in the brown and gold.
In 2025, Harey has taken his game to another level, moving into the middle of the ground and transitioning into a dangerous goal kicking midfielder.
A proven big game performer and a Hawk through and through. It’s great to have you locked in, Harey!
We’re pumped to announce that Josh Hannon has recommitted to the Hawks for season 2026.
A 3-time premiership player, 2023 Bob Henry Medallist, and the premier ruckman in the competition. Josh is a true Hawk and a fan favorite. Locking him in for 2026 is massive for our engine room.
We’re excited to announce that Darcy Jamieson has recommitted to the Hawks for the 2026 season!
Darcy made his senior debut in Round 13, turning heads with a classy, composed performance. He’s been a consistent force with Eastern Ranges and brings speed, composure, and that forward flair to the brown and gold.
The future is bright, and we couldn’t be happier to have you locked in, Darcy
We’re thrilled to announce that Charlie Lavender has recommitted to the Hawks for season 2026!
After making his senior debut in 2025, Charlie has quickly earned the respect of the entire group with his outstanding work ethic and determination. A promising young talent with a big future, he’s one to watch as he continues to develop in the brown and gold.
Great to have you locked in, Charlie!
We’re excited to announce that Ryan White has recommitted to the Hawks for season 2026! A 150-game player, 3-time premiership winner, dual Bob Henry Medallist, dual Ray Lacey Medallist, and key leader of our senior squad Whitey’s impact on and off the field is second to none.
Great to have you locked in for another big year Chomp!
This week we celebrate a huge milestone for one of our finest, Jake Mellis, who runs out for his 100th senior game in the brown and gold! After a decorated Junior career, as a Captain and Under 19 David Murrihy Medallist, Jake has excelled in his Senior career to date.
A 2023 Premiership Player and always a true team-first Hawka. Whether it’s shutting down an opponent or standing tall in big moments, Jake always leads by example and puts the team first. Jake is a much loved & respected teammate off the field.
The Mellis name continues to build a proud legacy at the Hawka – and hitting the ton is another proud chapter in an already incredible career. Congratulations Jakey.
Kieran has been a vital part of the Hawks since joining in 2023, kicking an impressive 47 goals along the way. He played a key role in our senior premiership victory in 2023 and has smoothly transitioned from a forward to a hard-running wingman.
Known for his relentless work ethic, Kieran contributes both offensively and defensively, often tracking back to help in defence and pushing forward to create scoring opportunities. Beyond the field, Kizza’s lively personality and good humour make him a standout teammate, greatly contributing to the strong culture at the Hawks.
Here’s to many more games and successes ahead for Kizza!
Good luck to this young man as he makes his Senior debut in the brown and gold in the main game against Park Orchards. Go well Tom!
We’re excited to confirm that Jake Godwin has re-signed with the Boronia Hawks for the 2026 season!
Jake is a versatile and respected leader, capable of impacting games at both ends of the ground but above all, he’s someone who always puts the club first.
A Senior Premiership Player in 2018, Jake then moved north spending a few years in QLD. He featured in the 2024 QAFL Grand Final with Morningside, kicking three goals in a premiership win. He returned home to Boronia in 2025 and hasn’t missed a beat.
His return has been critical as the group adjusted to the demands of Division 1. Whether he’s locking down defenders, pushing forward, or mentoring younger players, Jake does it all with humility, heart, and team-first commitment. Not many come more loyal or genuine than Jake Godwin. We’re wrapt to have him back in the brown and gold for 2026!
