In his second year as captain of Geelong, Dangerfield continued to be a strong leader on and off the field as he led the team back to the Finals in 2024. 

Across 16 appearances last year the 34 year old continued to put up strong numbers, averaging over 20 disposals and five clearances per game. 

Dangerfield's ability to impact the scoreboard was also evident, kicking eight goals for the year including majors in six of his last eight matches. 

At the conclusion of 2024, Dangerfield signed a two year contract extension which will see him stay at Geelong until at least the end of 2026. 

Currently sitting on 337 games, expect to see him become just the 25th player in AFL history to reach 350 games at some stage next year.
