The Geelong Cats Historical Society held their final event of the year at GMHBA Stadium on Monday afternoon.
Titled Her Story: Past, Present and Emerging the event celebrated the club’s pioneering women and their role in our great game from the late 1800s to today.
Around 200 attendees witnessed a panel of guest speakers including club director Diana Taylor, VFLW coach Natalie Wood, long serving staff member Mary Kincaid and current AFLW players Georgie Rankin and Millie Brown.
A highlight of the afternoon was the re-creation of Michael Wilson’s famous photo taken at Geelong’s first ever AFLW game. The image shows adoring Geelong fans cheering as AFLW player Georgie Rankin walks towards the crowd.
