Even tho they are not our players anymore we still like to follow their progress and there was an ulterior motive with the game being at Leederville as Senior Seagull said. I reckon it is important to show interest in these guys as the AFL system has a habit of spitting out relatively young guys if they don't make it immediately and we could see these blokes back at Subi at some time in the future.

jjim -- I am fully on board with the money motive. Yep, hopefully both will be back with us in the future, most do return home. Only Lange and Hewiit, from memory have ended up at othe clubs. Have I missed any?

Now that Menegola is about 6th in line in Geelong's midfield behind the Selwoods x 2, Danger, Duncan, Ablett I'd love to get him back if he gets the push in a year or two.

Only maybe Ryan Crowley even tho he wasn't a Subi junior. Remember being disappointed when Hewitt & Lange went elsewhere but was glad we got Josh Deluca back after it looked like he was going to WP or SF at one stage.

Think Sam has a 3 year contract with the Cats but would welcome him back anytime , he was awesome in 2015 for us.

AR & Jim I think you will find Lange was drafted to NM from Sturt in the SAFL as he had walked out of Subiaco a year or 2 beforehand and was definitely never ever going back there!

Seem to remember the family moving to South Australia.

How the fuck could Menegola be behind a ponce like Scott Selwood in the pecking order?

BH -- thanks, I did not know that

Different type of player jack....Selwood is generally given a run with job whilst Mena is an outside mid which Geelong seems to have an abundance of. Ross Lyon tried to give Mena a tagging role when he was at Freo and it just didn't work out....fast forward to 2015 at Subi and Schofield released him to play attacking gut running footy and he just took off from there. I think he'll struggle to get game time this year if the Cats have all midfield personnel fit and firing.
