Experienced quartet Amy McDonald, Chantel Emonson, Julia Crockett-Grills and Georgie Rankin have signing multiyear deals.

The remaining 13 players will remain in the Hoops until at least the end of the 2024 season.

In addition to the 26 players that have recommitted, the Cats welcomed Bella Smith from the Brisbane Lions in the trade period last week who has signed a one-year contract with the Club.

Geelong Cats Assistant General Manager of Football Brett Johnson said it was great to retain the core of our list heading into 2024. 

“All players in our squad last year played a key role in our success, and to be able to retain the majority of our list is exciting and we can’t wait to continue to build next year,” Johnson said.

“Ten players have committed to the Club longer term which has enabled us to lock away a strong core group of players that can continue to lead our program forward from both a team performance and culture perspective.”

The Cats have 27 players locked in for 2024, with the Club permitted to have 30 listed players for the 2024 season. The Club holds picks 17, 32 and 41 heading into the 2023 AFLW Draft on Monday night.
