he is starting to gain the confidence to run the lines. His hands were fanastic, is all class with his skills. That goal was awesome!

Saintersss · Sat 25 Apr 2009 12:48am

This kid always produces a great goal, I just love too watch him play. Superstar!

i'm surprised he could breathe with all that padding on his face

claystreet · Sat 25 Apr 2009 12:51am

Hes got me as a fan after tonight for sure.

midas_touch · Sat 25 Apr 2009 1:06am

Certainly loves that end of the ground at Adelaide. Very good performance, great goal, broke the lines, and showed some toughness.

Fantastic game Geary!
I knew I put you in my supercoach team for a good reason.
GoSaints!

Must agree. Was wondering about him round 1 but he has been good throughout. Great game tonight. the boy can run and he has got big balls

SaintWodonga · Sat 25 Apr 2009 3:09am

WOW! What a game!
Can he be nominated for the rising star award?

The OtherThommo · Sat 25 Apr 2009 3:32am

Yes, he can be nominated. More importantly his form is vindication of RTB's attitude to playing fit footballers from the off.

That's why he's in charge.

I think we have a new G Train. All aboard the Geary Train. Started as a junior puffer on the rookie list but is now an express on the way to the top. I am on board for the ride. Seats filling fast.

This kid still very inexperienced as he is has a very good football brain.

I'm in... the kid is a little gun!

duckduckduckgoose · Sat 25 Apr 2009 12:56pm

very impressed with him all year- especially last night.
Great to see him keep improving

d roit · Post: # 730046Post **d roit** » Sat 25 Apr 2009 1:07pm

agree wholeheartedly. i absolutely love this kid! last few weeks he's been tough, has ran hard and always put in 100%.

he did the same last night, if not more, and also showed us he has a great footy brain.

look forward to seeing him play many more great games for us

Having just watched the replay....IMO this PA will be Geary's break-out game.

In this game we have seen Geary really start to show those things we have seen in him playing in the VFL.

He is started to radiate confidence and class.

He is a lot better than being just a "worker"...or a "runner"...

He is starting to show that poise and abilty to not looked rushed that good playes exhibit.

He knows how to finish and kick goals...and he also knows how to set up play.

IMO Geary will now grow and grow as a player...most probably into a full-time mid in time.

He will grow with experience...and by this seasons end I think he will bea regular first 22 player. By the end of next year he will a player that the opposition really needs to watch.

He will become better as his body matures too.

Sainter_4_life · Sat 25 Apr 2009 1:21pm

A smokie to take the Rising Star ?

Obviously hard to beat rich, but he might be worth looking at. Wonder what he is paying ?

derby Street · Sat 25 Apr 2009 2:00pm

He has really stepped up this year and looking more and more at home in the big league. Runs the lines really well and covering lots of ground as well.
A big improver but needs to keep working hard.

Armoooo · Post: # 730268Post **Armoooo** » Sat 25 Apr 2009 6:58pm

I have been a big fan of Geary's since day one, he has the attitude and attributes to take him very far.

I would be very surprised if he didn't snag a nomination this week...

saintly · Post: # 730278Post **saintly** » Sat 25 Apr 2009 7:11pm

I think I've jinxed him...
Gary Moss from Hawthorn kicked 4 goals from 24 touches and 9 marks...

If he can maintain the kind of form he's in, he'll get one at some stage. He probably needs to have either a week that makes the statsheet bleed a little more, or a week where he does the same while being one of the Saints best (He'd likely have been behind Roo, Fisher, Hayes, Ball and others would be debatable).

The nomination is for one big week. More importantly, if he maintains this kind of play, he'll hold his spot in the side and possibly be one of the guys who takes votes behind the eventual rising star winner.

But stop mozzing him anyway!

[quote="Armoooo"][quote="vacuous space"]It'll be interesting to see if he gets the Rising Star nomination this week. So far I'd think his only competition would be Andy Otten.[/quote]

Completely forgot he was eligible, would be a very worthy nomination, I would also keep an eye out for Eric MacKenzie from West Coast, he is a very likely type.[/quote]

The qualifying requirements are
1 Must not have played more than 10 games before the start of the season - 10 games so he passes.
2 Must be under 21 years old on 1 Jan of the season - 20 years old so he passes.

We realise he qualifies but do the nominating committee realise he is still eligible.
They are ex footballers so of no proven intelligence.
