Box Hill were fully prepared to go it alone if the covid season went ahead. They'd struggle for a while on the field, but if Hawthorn dropped them, they'd be fine as a stand alone.
If BH thought they were capable of going it alone only a few years ago, don't understand why they don't do it now.

Take ownership of their club back, jumper, song etc. rather than having a master. Wonder where the AFL Hawks would play their VFL team?

Personally, don't see the point of being part of an aligned entity with only around 20 listed players, that's not a true football club in the proper sense, and that goes for all aligned clubs.

I agree with u 100%. Sandy and Casey should be standalone.

They are in an agreement with Hawthorn, so their hands are tied. The Hawks would have to break it and hand the licence to Box Hill, like Carlton did when they dropped Preston.

The Hawthorn VFL team would probably play at the new training facility/VFLW home ground in Dingley, but Glenferrie Oval or Waverley Park are also options. Given the Dingley ground is just about ready to open, I wouldn't be surprised if the AFL Hawks take the opportunity to try and move Box Hill out there or divorce them entirely.
