More info on Nathan Lonie

The identical twin brother of Collingwood player Ryan Lonie, the two Lonies not only share identical looks but share very similar footballing characteristics - possessing long kicking abilities (over 55 metres) and playing a "receiver" role relying on uncontested possessions across the half-back line.

Hawthorn career
He debuted with the Hawthorn Football Club midway through the 2001 season, but was not recalled til round 20, where he then held his spot for the finals series.

Port Adelaide career
After 64 games with the Hawks, Lonie was traded to Port Adelaide at the end of the 2005 season, where he became a regular first-team player. He was dropped near the end of 2007 season, as his team Port Adelaide made the grand final.

At the end of 2008 Nathan was delisted by the Port Adelaide Football Club.

"Receiver"? "Uncontested"?

Are we talking about the same bloke?

Did anyone else notice that in Saturday's rag it said that Nathan has retired, rather than be delisted

I knew Ryan from the Pies had retired due to persistant injuries, but nathan's retirement is news to me
