Geelong have begun reshaping their list just four days after winning the AFL grand final.

The talent is there, he just hasn’t put it together,” Geelong ruck coach Josh Jenkins said on Trade Radio.

The 34-year-old on Saturday said he wanted to soak in the flag without making “an emotional decision”. His bit-part role in the Cats’ run to the grand final came after exploring long-term opportunities away from the club at the end of last season, only to re-sign on a one-year deal.

Selwood, who last Saturday became the first Geelong player to win a fourth premiership with the club, has been weighing up his options but is tipped to call it a day.

Joel Selwood confirms that his grand final win for Geelong was his last game in the AFL, bringing an emotional end to one of the great careers in football.

Loved within the club and respected among his peers, Selwood drew controversy over the number of free kicks he earned for being tackled high — with some accusing him of ducking. "It's probably the best goal I've ever kicked," Selwood told the press conference. His family shed tears, too, in the stands. You don't come to the Geelong Football Club to go to work for money, you come for the experience. I don't have the answer for you," he said. His career was bookended by overwhelming grand final wins.

End of an era: Selwood retires as Cats' 'greatest player' in perfect finish to career.

“He’s not ‘the right player at the right time’, he is the player that is the central driver of it. “The Cats have been enormous for 10 years now about managing players. No one can do it other than him. But he‘s enforced leadership into that group that no one can do. “I’ve loved going to work. “In 30 years’ time, he’ll be elevated to legend status in the Australian Football Hall of Fame and those images, with Levi, with Sammy over the fence, with the boots to the Auskicker and the way he was the best player on the ground in the first quarter is where the game was won.”

He is a man of high integrity and has carried himself on and off the field with great distinction and class throughout his playing career. A standard of performance on the field, inside the Cattery, and in the community, that we all seek to emulate. Joel's CV is as long as and as good as anyone’s that's ever played the game. And to cap it off on Saturday with the Premiership was a great way to finish.” “To have people alongside me like Joel on this journey, to help guide me through my career has been unbelievable. His accolades, achievements, and awards are too numerous to mention.
