Recruited to Glenferrie Oval from Kew CYMS, Leo Bohan was a lightly built utility who played a peripheral role for Hawthorn during a difficult period for the club in the post-war years. Standing just 173cm, he was suited to roving or small defensive posts but struggled to cement a permanent position in the senior side, managing just 18 games across three seasons between 1949 and 1951. Despite his limited opportunities at VFL level, Bohan provided depth to a struggling Hawks outfit that finished near the bottom of the ladder throughout his tenure, eventually departing the league following the 1951 season.
