We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Lily-Grace Murrell to Boronia. A fierce competitor and proven performer on the big stage, Lily joins us from The Basin for the 2025 season to join a number of friends in brown and gold. One of the most exciting young players in the competition, Lily combines physicality, explosive speed and the ability to hit the scoreboard, with these traits earning her a number of games with Eastern Ranges in 2023. We can’t wait to see Lily continue her development with Boronia.
