I think my first thought when I heard he was coming to Geelong was, What? Him!?. He charmed the Cat's fans and help deliver our 2022 Premiership.
Enjoy your retirement Izzy. It has been a pleasure to watch you in the hoops. Thanks.

Obviously his daughter has better taste than the other offspring

Has to be up there as one of the greatest pure wingers the game has ever seen??

Of the past 20 years certainly. Duncan would be up there within that time frame too. Maybe Embley. Sidebottom?

Thank you for your great service to the AFL game.
When he was interviewed after the game this week he was not his jovial self.
I think Holmes will replace him on the wing. This is where he looks more comfortable.

Looking through these photos and it's like these two have been teammates since drafted, not just the last 3 years

Ha! Isaac mentioning The Light Brigade Pub in Padddington is where we watched Geelong games, when I began Sydney Cats

What an absolute champion. Was amazing to recruit not just a great footballer but a great person to the club.

I miss him

Not sure how many times I've said it, but really feels like he was the one who got away when we drafted Smedts instead of Smith

There's stories like that everywhere though, in fairness. In 2006 Hawthorn drafted Mitch Thorp instead of Joel Selwood!

Cracker of a footballer and bloke - tune in to his podcast episode on Dyl and Friends - great listen

Stevie J and Izzy Smith banter is good for a laugh.
