Mannagh backed up a terrific debut season at Geelong with an even better year in 2025, quickly becoming one of the Cats' most important players.
After a delayed start to the campaign, Mannagh returned in Round 4 and quickly reminded everyone how damaging he can be, collecting 18 disposals and kicking an important goal in the victory over Melbourne.
His impact offensively can not be understated finishing with 31 goals and 20 goal assists for the season, which ranked in the top five players at Geelong in both categories.
But his influence was not limited to the forward 50 with Mannagh pushing up to play as an extra midfielder around stoppages, finishing fourth at the club for clearances in 2025 while also averaging 18.3 disposals per game.
Mannagh was awarded the AFLCA's Best Young Player Award at the end of the year, while also receiving the Carter Family Community Champion Award.
