Riley has played 128 games of junior football, including three seasons in A grade, with four grand finals along the way. He has also enjoyed premiership success in the ACC and already has some Under 19’s experience to offer.
Boronia Hawks FNC is very excited to welcome Sam Newey for the 2025 season. Sam joins the club with a solid background of junior footy in A and B grades and interleague. He is a former premiership captain and has two B&F’s to his name and plenty of finals experience.
Boronia Hawks FNC is very excited to welcome Lachlan Coverdale to the club for the 2025 season. Lachie has a very good record of junior footy in A and B grades, with one flag up his sleeve. Covers has already played some Under 19’s and will bring great experience to the team. He is versatile and can play in a number of positions up or back.
A very big thank you to Macey Ryan and MCR ELECTRICAL for loyal support over recent years. We love it when one of our own players gets behind the club as a sponsor, to give something back. Here he is with Eva at Tormore Reserve sharing in the success of 2024 with our three premiership cups and flags. Good work Mace!
Boronia Hawks FNC is proud to announce that STEVE TEAKEL and DREW O’HARE have recommitted to roles as assistant coaches with the senior men’s team for the 2025 season. Together with our Senior Coach, Matt Clark, we believe this to be an extremely strong coaching panel. Steve and Drew are enormously respected within the club and throughout the league.
Steve’s experience, his level headedness and his football knowledge built over so many years of involvement at a local level makes him the perfect foil for Matt Clark. The two men are close friends, they have coached together for many years now and complement each other. Teaks is an absolute asset to our club and we hope he has many more years of coaching involvement at the ‘Hawka.’
Drew has been a respected and admired coach at Boronia for many, many years and is a Life Member of the Club. One of the most passionate and committed of Boronia people, Drew brings a wealth of football and club knowledge to the table and we are so grateful for his continued service to our club.
Please join us all in thanking Steve and Drew for their loyalty and commitment to the Hawks.
Boronia Hawks FNC is very excited to announce the signing of TYSON SPURR and MITCHELL SMITH for the 2025 season.
Tyson played A grade junior footy at Wantirna South and The Basin, playing in multiple final series. He took the past 18 months off to focus on an opportunity to play in the senior basketball team at school and competed in two Australian School Championships. He is now very eager to get back into footy and ready to covert his basketball IQ onto the footy field. Mitch has played all his junior career at Knox and can play good footy down back or up forward as a flanker.
Please join us all in welcoming them to our 2025 Under 19’s.
The woman’s football community at the club is devastated to learn of the passing of our friend and former teammate, Alex Song.
Alex is remembered fondly for her determination and attack on the footy and was the sort of person you wanted on your team. Sadly, she leaves her wife Phoebe and baby son Patrick.
The following post was published on Alex’s social media today.
“On Tuesday, Alex passed away. She was loved by so many and was an incredible wife and mother. A GoFundMe account has been set up for her son Patrick’s future.

Alex’s funeral will be held at Le Pine Box Hill on Friday October 18th at 10am. There will be light refreshments at Le Pine immediately afterwards. All are welcome.

A very big thank you to MARY DOYLE MP for her great support during 2024. Mary is our local member for the federal seat of Aston, and was very helpful in ensuring the delivery of funding for our new clubrooms at Tormore Reserve. Here is Mary with our three premiership cups and flags, enjoying the club’s success. Please thank Mary for all her support.
Greg ‘Hollywood’ Krenn was not only a long-term player for the Hawka but is also a long-term sponsor. Hollywood has done it all – over 350 games for Boronia and collecting 7 premierships on the way.
His business GK Travel & Cruise has also been with us all the way. Located in Mountain Gate, Hollywood and his team give you the personal service you won’t get online with the added protection of assisting you if things change or go wrong while you’re travelling. Support the businesses that support the club. We can’t recommend GK Travel & Cruise highly enough for your next holiday or work trip. Thanks again Hollywood for your many years of support!
