Shockwaves through Geelong as premiership stars Rohan and Parfitt cut lose! Find out who else is leaving the Cats!

In a surprising twist of fate, Geelong Cats have waved goodbye to seven players, including revered premiership winners Gary Rohan and Brandan Parfitt. Their exit comes fresh off the back of a disappointing preliminary final loss to the Brisbane Lions, leaving fans scratching their heads about the team's future. It seems that the Cats are embarking on a drastic overhaul, leading to a buzzing rumor mill about potential new signings and strategies for the upcoming season.

Joining Rohan and Parfitt in the exit lounge are a handful of other hopefuls: Phoenix Foster, Oscar Murdoch, James Willis, Mitch Hardie, and Emerson Jeka. While the Cats are known for their commitment to building a strong squad, the recent decisions have sent shockwaves through both the playing group and the loyal fanbase. It was a bittersweet day for Cats supporters as they processed the news of their beloved players departing after having donned the hoops for the last time.

As Geelong looks toward the future, there’s a sense of nostalgia mixed with excitement about who will join the ranks next. The Cats have a rich history and are no strangers to rebuilding their team, but the transition can quite often be rocky. Rohan’s long-standing contributions to the team, including his explosive speed and knack for goal-scoring, will surely be missed, alongside Parfitt's fierce tenacity and skill on the ball.

With delistings happening at this time of year, it’s not just about who’s leaving but also about who will be brought in. The Cats will be in the spotlight as they work to bounce back, and the coming weeks will likely reveal exciting new additions to the roster. One fact to bear in mind is that, in 2020, Rohan played a key role in helping Geelong secure the premiership against the equal fervour of their rival teams. Likewise, Parfitt’s remarkable skills were instrumental in several high-stakes matches.

In the world of football, turnover is common, yet the emotional toll on fans and players alike is very real. As we wish Rohan and Parfitt the best in their future endeavors, it’s worth noting that both players have left a legacy in the club's history, becoming fan favorites along the way. Geelong’s next chapter will be watched closely, as they aim to rise from the ashes following these significant changes!
