“I have decided that the 2012 season will be my last with Geelong and as an AFL player,” Scarlett said.

“I have enjoyed a wonderful time with the club and am proud to have shared this with so many great team mates. We all spend so much time together that it is important that there is a respect and desire to do everything possible to achieve success. I think this has been a hall mark of our team, that we have come together and worked together to have success.

"Obviously the premierships stand out as highlights, but they would not have been possible unless we all worked together along the way. I am confident that this will continue in the future with all of the young players that have joined the club in recent years."

“I have friends for life from among my team mates, past and present. I will look back on this time with great memories and I look forward to enjoying more good times with them as a past player."

im a freo supporter and im still jealous of Scarlett

[Ziplock]

are you sure it's because of balla, and not the 'multiple premiership winner'? :P

[Ricochet]

Hahaha yes that as well......... But mainly balla

[the flying hawk]

as much as a good player he was a geelong great he is but he always anoyed the shower out of me because he was just too good most people who do not support geelong will know what i mean to but well done on a fantastic career :) :)

[Spinking]

The end of a great career. Probably the best defender I've seen play live. Genuine champion of the game.

He'll leave a huge hole. You just can't replace players like him. Our recruiters have a job to do this post season.
Maybe we shoud buy Mcpharlin so Freo can offer Cloke more money 8)
