27 year old Lehman – formerly of Catani – returned to the league this season after a stint at Pakenham and shone with his prolific ball winning ability, poise and exquisite skills with both hand and feet.

23 year old Hazendonk joined the league from Devon Meadows in 2017. He drives hard at the ball and doubled as a dangerous forward kicking 31 goals this season and was a major reason behind Poowong’s revival.
