The Geelong Cats and Tyson Stengle have mutually agreed to part ways. The Club, the AFLPA and Stengle’s management finalised the agreement on Friday.
Since arriving at the Cats at the end of 2021, Stengle played 93 (109 AFL games) games for the club and kicked 160 goals, earning All-Australian honours in his debut season at Geelong and playing a key role in the Club’s 2022 AFL Premiership. Stengle’s last AFL game for the Cats was the 2025 AFL Grand Final.
Tyson Stengle said:
“Thank you so much to the Geelong Footy Club. In particular, to my teammates, the coaching staff, the support staff and most importantly to the fans. Your unwavering and loyal support through the great times and the tough times has meant more to me than you will ever know. I am deeply grateful, and look forward to supporting the Club as a fan.”
Geelong Cats Executive General Manager Football Andrew Mackie said:
“We would like to congratulate Tyson on what he has achieved over his career, including his time at Geelong. To play over 100 games, earn All Australian selection and be part of a Premiership team are achievements we are proud to have shared with him.
“Tyson has shown tremendous resilience during his time at Geelong, and we believe now is the right time for both Tyson and the Club to move forward.
“We thank Tyson for his contribution to the Cats and celebrate what he has achieved in his football career.”
