VFL

[edit]

Hawthorn continued its reserves affiliation with the Box Hill Hawks in the Victorian Football League (VFL) in 2024 for the 25th season. This allowed Hawthorn-listed players to play with Box Hill when not selected in AFL matches.

Ethan Phillips joined Box Hill in December 2023 ahead of the 2024 VFL season, but he was signed to Hawthorn's rookie list in the AFL pre-season supplemental selection period (SSP) on 17 February 2024 after defender James Blanck suffered an ACL injury.[17][18]
