Toby Greene weighs move to Geelong amid Zak Butters interest

Greater Western Sydney Giants captain Toby Greene is considering a move to the Geelong Cats, citing family reasons and a desire to reduce travel. Greene, who has spent 15 years with the Giants, stated he is “wrestling with the decision” and needs to work it out with his family.

Greene has been in discussions with Geelong regarding his potential role in the team. His decision is potentially influenced by the movement of Port Adelaide star Zak Butters, a restricted free agent who has expressed a desire to return to his native Victoria. Greene has spoken directly with Butters to understand his priorities, noting that Butters’ potential move adds “weight” to his own decision-making process.

Both Greene and Butters are expected to be major figures in the upcoming AFL trade and free agency period starting in October.
