Zach Tuohy was an emotional figure as he tied Jim Stynes' AFL appearance record and reminisced on his career.
The Portlaoise man moved to Australia back in 2009 and tied Stynes' appearance record as he lined out for the 264th time.
And Tuohy spoke to media after the game and was emotional, he said: "It's an honour, and like I said pre-game, I feel like I owe the AFL and Australia an awful lot. I came as a 19-year-old kid and I'm married with kids. Got to have a whole career in the best game in the world.
"I just love Geelong. I consider myself so lucky and fortunate to have ended up at the Cats. It sort of reignited my love and passion for the game, and obviously they've delivered me a bit of success which I'm really grateful for."
Tuohy originally joined Carlton before joining Geelong in 2017 and has represented Ireland in the International Rules series.
