Geelong Cats · 3 notes
Gryan Miers stays at Geelong. List boss Andrew Mackie said the Cats didn't shut down West Coast's interest at once, out of respect to Miers; Essendon talk "didn't even get to that stage". Another club asked about Sam De Koning: "he's too good to not be in our team."
Gryan Miers was "not very close" to a Bulldogs trade, Geelong's Andrew Mackie said, despite "some interest". He's contracted for a couple of years. Contract and draft-pick terms, not Nick Blakey's past, ended the Cats' interest once North Melbourne moved fast, Mackie said.
No knee surgery for Gryan Miers before 2027: Geelong's Andrew Mackie called the medical feedback "really positive" and said Miers worked through the mental side too. Harley Barker, drafted last year, is through a knee reconstruction; Mackie is "really confident" in him.
