Welcome to Max Brasher

Posted on by

Boronia Hawks are very excited to welcome MAX BRASHER to the Club for the 2023 season.

Max joins Boronia from UFTG to play footy with his brother Zack, who enjoyed a break out year in 2022 before injury ended his season. 

Max is a decorated junior player with two EFNL B&F’s and one runner-up.  He also represented the league in Under 14’s and Under 15’s.  Max has won four club B&F’s at junior level and was a premiership captain in Under 11’s and Under 14’s. 

He has made a successful transition to senior football in 2021 and 2022, coming fourth in the UFTG B&F in his first full year of senior footy. 

We look forward to Max enjoying his football career with Boronia and we have no doubt he will be a great addition to the team.  Please make him feel very welcome at Tormore Reserve.

Boronia Hawks are very pleased to announce that 2018 premiership defender Harry Burgess has returned from a successful season in the USA and will be playing with Boronia again in 2020.

Harry spent the 2019 season in Texas with the Austin Crows and played a key role in their premiership in the USAFL Division 1 National Championships.

2019 was a huge season for the Burgess family. Corey Burgess had an outstanding season with the Hawks, winning selection in the EFNL Team of the Year. The patriarch, Tim Burgess was also recognised as Boronia’s Club Person of the Year for his enormous contribution to the Club.

We can now look forward to seeing the two Burgess Boys back together again in 2020. Please welcome Harry Back to Boronia!

Boronia Hawks is very excited to announce to members and supporters that TAYLOR LEGGATE will be joining the Hawks for 2020.

Taylor is joining the Hawks from Wantirna South as a highly credentialed recruit with a great CV and lot of good footy still ahead of him. He has of course been coached for several years by Matt Clark and Steve Teakel, who know that he is both a great footballer and a terrific person.

Taylor is around the 6’2″ mark, plays as a midfielder, and is very capable of kicking goals when swung up forward. At only 27 years of age, he has played over 150 senior games at Wantirna South, after playing his early footy with Bayswater and Eastern Ranges.

He has won three Club B&F’s at Wantirna South, kicked almost 200 goals, and was a key player in their 2014 Division 3 premiership under Clarky’s coaching. Taylor has been named 6 times in the EFL Team of the Year, which is a great indicator of how highly he is regarded by opposition coaches.

Taylor can’t wait to get around the boys and get stuck in to a big preseason. Please make sure that you make Taylor and his family feel very welcome in joining us at the Hawka.

Boronia Hawks are very pleased to announce that Jack Hare, brother of Luke, will be joining the Club for 2019. 

Jack is a young gun who played two years with Eastern Ranges and also played for Vic Metro Under 16’s.  He won the EFL Under 15B Best and Fairest with Knox and has spent the last two seasons with Wantirna South.  Please get around Jack and welcome him to Tormore Reserve.

 

Welcome back to Luke Hare!

Boronia Hawks are very pleased to announce that Luke Hare will play with the Club again in 2019 after missing all of the 2018 season with work commitments.  Luke had a very successful junior career playing in five A grade flags for Knox before coming to Tormore Reserve in 2017. His strengths are his leg speed and a raking left foot kick which enables him to hit up his targets or boot a long bomb goal.
