Garry Ablett - Marquee Man


With one of Geelongs star premiership players, Garry Ablett, coming out of contract at the end of the 2010 season, AFL club-to-be, Gold Coast, to be included in the 2011 premiership season, have made it clear that Garry Ablett will be their number 1 man. Along with other players like Lance "Buddy" Franklin and Nick Reidwolt also coming out of contract, Gold Coast would love to poach these players. Fox Sports spoke with Graeme Downie who said "My view is you go for the best player," "Any club would love to have Gary Ablett, he is an amazing player. Everyone says how good his father was. I'd have Gary before his father." However, with all this in mind, Franklin has come out and said he has no intentions on leaving the Hawks, as he wants to be a one team man throughout his career. No comments have been made by Ablett as of yet, but with such a tradition of Abletts playing for Geelong, it would be hard to imagine he leave the club, especially being the power team they are these days.
