Club career
Honos began his career as a junior at Port Melbourne SC[1] before heading to Greece to start his senior career. After several years in the lower divisions, he then joined Egaleo F.C. ahead of the 2005-06 Alpha Ethniki season where he made 5 appearances in the Greek top-flight.
Following this, Honos spent the next three seasons in the Football League (Greece) with Niki Volos F.C., Ilisiakos F.C., Kallithea F.C. and Ethnikos Piraeus F.C..[2]
After several more years in lower divisions he returned to Australia in 2012 and trialled with Melbourne Heart Football Club[3] before eventually joining NPL Victoria club Oakleigh Cannons FC during the mid-season transfer window.[4] In 2013 Honos switched to Port Melbourne and polled the second-most votes in the Gold Medal award behind Marijan Cvitkovic.[5] In the final game of the 2014 season, Honos set up a Conor Reddan goal in the final minute to save Port Melbourne from relegation.[6] After returning to Oakleigh for the 2015 season, Honos re-joined Port Melbourne for 2016.[7] In June 2016, Honos made a mid-season switch to Bentleigh Greens SC[8]
