Geary

[HarveysDeciple]

Super impressed yet again with this bloke.

Almost won selection late last year and he just looks a natural player.

Quick, finds the footy with ease and uses it smartly.

Will play Round One I'd expect then the whole season.

smokey for the NAB also.

[markinUSA]

I feel confident (and when I say "confident", I mean "hopeful") that he will be the Rising Star this year.

Geary was KBs man of the match .....Dumb Ox picked Selwood ............

[dascman]

Not so dumb in this instance. Selwood was clearly Geelong's best. Had a ripper second half, nearly won it for them.

Great ti hear that Geary has stood up. I have heard or seen very little about Geary.

Does anyone have any stats about him? Size, playing history, strongest and weakest components of his game etc?

or Direct me to where I can find this info?

[St Fidelius]

I cannot be flowered with the search about Geary from last year...

But a couple of posters suggested that he should be dropped..

I then commented (posted) on how he has been among the best on ground for the scorps for most of the season........

Yep posters have the right to have their opinion

flowing idiots IMO

I remember that it was merely a mid season discussion on possible delistings, and very little had been said about Geary on here so a few people just assumed that he wasn't going to be kept. Most late rookie picks are delisted unless they star on the VFL so it wasn't a hugely ridiculous assumption.

Personally I have rated Geary ever since the first time I saw him play for the Scorps and am not surprised at his good pre season form. Not only does he have the skills, smarts and pace, but he also has shown that he's got plenty of confidence, mongrel and can land a beautiful spoil.

Loved it when he slammed Max Rooke. Thought Rooke was pretty lame the way he lashed out at a perfectly good and legal tackle. I guess no premiership playing tough guy likes to be shown up by a young 'un. Must admit I had him slightly behind Eddy last week. But now I reckon he's more than worthy of his place on the big boys list.

Rooke is a tool.

There was more than some feeling in today's game. Loved how Armo stirred them up. A lot of chat out there - after a 3-to-1 marking contest involving Kosi and three Geelong defenders, they spat some comments at him and he responded in kind. Loved it.

Anyone notice as the game ensued how they triple-teamed Kosi?


Can't wait for Round Four.

Fireworks will occur.

Happened after Gehrig went off.

he did "star" on most games in the VFL.......

or at least was amongst the best players and some on this site suggested that he should be de listed , just makes you wonder that's all...

flowering idiots IMO, that have no idea

He definitely finished the season well, but he did take a while to get going. Almost nothing was said of him in the first half of the season.

[jill]

As a South Gippslander was rapt with how young Eddy is developing - in fact we all have to be delighted with how the Club are handling the NAB Cup -Bring on 2008!!

I really don't know what you mean...

He was always consistent in every game he played....

[saints 82]

He was recovering from a broken arm and had plates removed thats why he wasnt up there in the 1st half of the season

That arm guard he wears is very similar to what Ross Lyon wore during his playing career !!

[esaint66]

was very impressed with his game today was our leading posession getter at one stage havent checked the full time stats yet but i would have him bog with kosi in a close second.

love it how geelong expected our youngsters to back down and we didnt in fact we stepped up.
also loved it how they gave away 100 meteres hahaha

[Solar]

always expected him to be one to shine this year, was always going to be that one player that comes from no where and grabs a spot in the 22 for round 1. Good footy smarts, knows where to go to get the footy and even more importantly doesn't waste it.

[*BaLLy iS BeST*]

super impressed with geary - doesnt seem nervous out there against the 'big boys' ... doing very well

apparently his brother is even better than him...

Now where have I heard that story before?

[congorozides]

Geary was KBs man of the match .....Dumb Ox picked Selwood ............

KB also said Geary was a Rookie.
is this true? can he actually round 1?

Geary is on the senior list, according to Saints.com

The Ox is a tool of the highest order, dunno why he hates us, maybe hes jealous.

[terry smith rules]

does anyone know if this guy is the son of John Geary who was a great country footballer

captained Redan in the late 70sand was as hard as

cheers

[Zed]
