@joelselwood14

I remember sitting in a Cork cafe in 2018 and spoke to this kid about an opportunity to become an AFL player with Geelong. He heard me out, politely declined, and fair to say it was a pretty decent decision! Up the Kingdom! 🔰

There are some boys on this list who I think are capable of playing good AFL footy. I hope AFL Clubs take a close look at their development over recent time.
Hang in there boys, this challenging period will hopefully be the making of you as an individual and as a footballer.
Geelong has delisted Quinton Narkle, Nick Stevens, Francis Evans, Category B rookie Paul Tsapatolis and mid-season draftee Zane Williams.

Ever want to learn about a story of perseverance, persistence & grit… just google “James Tsitas”. This bloke is a 🌟 on & off the field. An incredible role model to young footballers who aren’t drafted straight out of talent pathways.

Good piece
@JakeNiallTHEAGE
- lots of different factors allow the Cats to contend each & every year. But the key ingredient is selfless individuals who accept less than market value to wear the hoops. Never underestimate culture & leadership when it comes to managing an AFL list
How have
@GeelongCats
stayed on top after 10 years? Consider that Tom Hawkins, 34 & best big forward in
@AFL
, is playing for well below Dusty & others, & Dangerfield, Stewart, Selwood et al accept much less than they’re worth. It’s the Cats’ major edge.

One of the best people I’ve met in football. Smart move by the Suns to re-contract.
Good on James Tsitas. He missed playing in the Gold Coast Suns' VFL premiership because of suspension. But at age 28, a player who took a hard road to the AFL has got another contract with the Suns.
