50 GAMES | TYSON HENRY

Tyson Henry celebrates his 50th game in the brown and gold this Saturday, bringing his EFNL total to over 101 games across two clubs.

A great club person and stylish left footed defender, Tyson has been great for the Hawka over the past couple of seasons and we look forward to him making forwards earn every kick for the foreseeable future.

Maddy Suppa finished off by talking about her move to the club for 2023, remarking on the welcoming and supportive coaches and team mates.

50 GAMES | STACEY PONTON

Congratulations to Stacey Ponton as she plays her 50th Game for Boronia.

Pont has been one of the most skilled players our Women’s Squad has seen since she started towards the end of our inaugural year. Spending time at both ends of the ground, Pont has spent the majority of the last few seasons at half back.

Her great football IQ, ability to read the play and penetrating kick saw her finish Runner Up in the D Squad Best and Fairest in 2021, before playing mostly Senior football since.

Congratulations Pont!


2024 RE-SIGNINGS | FAIRCHILD & COLLINS

BHFNC is excited to announce that Damon Fairchild and Jayden Collins have both re-signed for the 2024 season.

Damon Fairchild is a 2018 senior premiership player and has rarely been out of our best players in season 2023. As a classic utility player who is dependable and consistent; he adds class to any Hawka lineup!

Jayden Collins, also a 2018 senior premiership player, is a former Bob Henry Medalist and top-class Centre Half Back of the competition who is rarely if ever beaten by a big forward.
