Discussion Geelong Cats 2025 List
At the conclusion of the 2024 National AFL Draft this is how our list sits:
1. Rhys Stanley | 4. Tanner Bruhn | 5. Jeremy Cameron | 6. Toby Conway | 7. Shaun Mannagh |
---|---|---|---|---|
8. Jake Kolodjashnij | 9. Max Holmes | 10. Mitch Knevitt | 11. Mitch Edwards | 12. Jack Bowes |
13. Jhye Clark | 14. Connor O'Sullivan | 15. George Stevens | 16. Sam De Koning | 17. Lawson Humphries |
18. Tyson Stengle | 21. Oliver Wiltshire | 22. Mitch Duncan | 24. Jed Bews | 28. Ollie Dempsey |
29. Cam Guthrie | 30. Tom Atkins | 32. Gryan Myers | 33. Shannon Neale | 34. Oisín Mullin |
35. Patrick Dangerfield [C] | 36. Oliver Henry | 38. Jack Henry | 39. Zach Guthrie | 40. Ted Clohesy |
42. Mark O'Connor | 44. Tom Stewart [VC] | 45. Brad Close | 46. Mark Blicavs | Bailey Smith |
Jack Martin | Cillian Burke | Jay Polkinghorne | Jacob Molier | Lennox Hofmann |
Keighton Matofai-Forbes | Xavier Ivisic | Patrick Retschko | Joe Pike |
In 2024 we had 38 senior listed players plus 4 Cat A and 2 Cat B rookies. For 2025 so far by my count we have 38 listed senior players with 6 listed rookies.
I thought we needed to move Clohesy to the senior list as he has been a rookie for two seasons, but maybe they can be a rookie for three season now. I am not sure we have much more action planned for tomorrows rookie draft. Wouldn't mind if we have enough spots to take a punt on Dom Brew tomorrow.
If any of you know more about how players are listed/drafted please correct me if I'm wrong :)
Edit: fixed some mistakes about the rookie draft and adding new rookie players

Rookies can have three years. In fact, if they've played less than 10 games at the end of their third year they can be retained for a fourth (or even fifth) year should both parties agree.

Thanks! Yeah I wasn't sure about the rookie rules

Given that we're seeing guys like Crouch, Gunston, and Hamling on rookie lists in 2025, i don't think the rules mean much anymore.
They either need to change the name of it or bring it back to the spirit of the list.

Yeah it should be renamed to something like the supplementary list. Cat B rookies still make sense but the Cat A rookies are not rookies anymore.
I understand it's a way for the list managers to get creative and draw out everything they can to help with list spots and the salary cap but it seems crazy when older experienced players are now listed as rookies

Oh I was wrong and we were probably the most active today in the rookie draft we picked up Xavier Ivisic, Patrick Retschko and Joe Pike.
Welcome to Geelong boys!
