The Geelong Falcons are a youth Australian rules football representative club in the TAC Cup competition, Victoria, Australia. The club takes in talented junior players from the Geelong, Colac and Warrnambool regions in order to prepare them for AFL selection. There is an under-16 side, but the club's main focus is its under-18 side, who play a longer season. In 2007, Jimmy Bartel became the first ex-Falcon to win the AFL Brownlow Medal, for the leagues best and fairest player, while Jonathan Brown became the first ex-Falcon to win the Coleman Medal for the most goals in the season. Gary Ablett Jnr also became the first ex-Falcon to win the Leigh Matthews Trophy, for being voted the Most Valuable Player by the AFL Players Association. Hawthorn half-back Luke Hodge became the first Falcon to win the Norm Smith Medal for his best on ground performance in the 2008 Grand Final against the Geelong Cats. Nick Maxwell became the first Geelong Falcons player to captain a premiership team when he led Collingwood to the 2010 AFL Premiership. == Notable Falcons players == * Jonathan Brown - Brisbane Lions: Coleman Medallist 2007; All-Australian 2007, 2009; Premiership Player 2001, 2002, 2003; Brisbane co-captain 2007-2008; Brisbane sole captain 2009–2014 * Gary Ablett, Jr. - /: All-Australian 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011; All-Australian captain 2011; AFLPA MVP 2007, 2008, 2009; Premiership Player 2007, 2009; Brownlow Medallist 2009, 2013; Gold Coast captain 2011–present * Jimmy Bartel - : Brownlow Medallist 2007; All-Australian 2007, 2008; North Smith Medalist 2011; Premiership Player 2007, 2009, 2011 * Luke Hodge - : Number One Draft Pick 2001; All-Australian 2005, 2008, 2010, All-Australian Captain 2010; Norm Smith Medallist 2008, 2014; Premiership Player 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015 Hawthorn captain 2011–present * Chris Heffernan - /: Premiership Player 2000 * Matthew Primus - /: All-Australian 2001, 2002; Port Adelaide Captain 2001-05, Port Adelaide Coach 2010–2012 * Cameron Ling - : All-Australian 2007; Premiership Player 2007, 2009, 2011, Premiership Captain 2011; Geelong Captain 2010-2011 * Matthew Scarlett - : All-Australian 2003, 2004, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011; Premiership Player 2007, 2009, 2011 * Scott Lucas - : Premiership Player 2000 * Jordan Lewis - : Premiership Player 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015 * Nick Maxwell - : Collingwood Captain 2008, Premiership Player/Captain 2010 * Amon Buchanan - /: Premiership Player 2005 * Matthew Capuano - /: Premiership Player 1996 and 1999 * Mark Blake - : Premiership Player 2009 * Allen Christensen - : Premiership Player 2011 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Geelong Falcons」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
