The Box Hill Hawks have made three changes ahead of Saturday’s crunch Semi-Final against Footscray, re-calling youngster Tristen Waack and the injured duo of Josh Bennetts and Stu Horner.

The Box Hill Hawks wish to advise that Cherie O’Neill has resigned from her role as VFLW Senior Coach. O’Neill joined the Hawks in 2021 and guided the team to back-to-back finals appearances in 2022 and 2023. Not only that, but O’Neill was instrumental in building a first-class VFLW program and oversaw the success of…
The Box Hill Hawks will have to go the long way around if they’re to claim a fourth senior VFL premiership – a challenge the playing group and coaches will no doubt embrace. Defeat at Werribee on Saturday means the Club will require the second chance a top four finish afforded the group, and has…

The Box Hill Hawks fell to a fourth loss on the season on Saturday, beaten by an in-form and fast-finishing Footscray by 20-points. On a wet, grey and oftentimes dim afternoon at City Oval the visiting Bulldogs took control early and, while the margin never ballooned beyond 20-points, maintained a two-to-three goal advantage for most…
