GUTHRIE A CAT FOR LIFE

GEELONG has agreed to terms with star free agent Cam Guthrie on a four-year deal that will make him a Cat for life.

The All Australian and best-and-fairest winner has just turned 29 but is one of Geelong’s most consistent ball winners.

While it has taken until preliminary final weekend for talks to conclude, it is understood an official agreement has been reached.

He has had another outstanding season, averaging 111 ranking points, 29 possessions and four tackles in the Geelong engine room.

Last year he won his first best-and-fairest trophy and All Australian jumper.

Guthrie’s brother Zac remains unsigned but is set to receive another contract to continue his career at the club.

Rhys Stanley will also sign a two-year deal at the Cats after a rollercoaster season.
