Quinton Narkle Biography

Port Adelaide select Quinton Narkle with pick No.11 in the 2023 Mid-Season Draft.

Quinton Narkle misses out on a spot on Richmond's list after training with them over the summer.

Richmond is trialling three players during the pre-season supplemental selection period, including delisted Geelong midfielder Quinton Narkle. 

Geelong delists five players, including Quinton Narkle, Francis Evans, Paul Tsapatolis, Nick Stevens and Zane Williams.

"Each player has played their part in our recent success, and we thank them for their commitment and dedication to our football program," Cats football boss Simon Lloyd said.

"To pull on the hoops is an achievement in of itself, and each of these young men should be incredibly proud to have represented the Geelong Football Club."

Quinton Narkle signs a one-year deal at the Cats to remain at the club in 2022.

Darcy Fort signs a new two-year deal while fellow Cats Quinton Narkle, Zach Guthrie, Ben Jarvis and Stefan Okunbor have all signed on for another season.

"We see Quinton, Darcy, Zach, Ben and Stefan as still having improvement in front of them," Cats head of football Simon Lloyd said.

"They each had limited opportunities this year, but all five players worked hard and got better. We are looking forward to their continued improvement."

Quinton Narkle signs a contract extension to remain at Geelong until the end of 2020.

Narkle made his debut in round 15 and has played four games after overcoming a 2017 ACL reconstruction.

"When we all got drafted it was a big draft so to sign on with all the boys (is great), we've become pretty close over the years," Narkle said.

"To spend these extra years with the boys and the others, hopefully we have some success down the track."

Quinton Narkle makes his AFL debut for Geelong at Docklands Stadium with 14 disposals (9 kicks and 5 handballs), 4 marks, 6 tackles and 2 goals in a 2-point loss to the Western Bulldogs.

Quinton Narkle will become Geelong's sixth debutant of the 2018 season when he takes the field against the Western Bulldogs this week.

It caps a remarkable rise for the 20-year-old West Australian who has played six VFL games after returning from a ruptured ACL in May.

"He's a really contested player, sharp with the ball (and) can play multiple roles," Cats coach Chris Scott said.

"Given we do have pretty good availability now, albeit without much match conditioning into those (returning) guys, it's a really strong indication of how we rate him."

Quinton Narkle is set to miss the rest of 2017, and quite possibly, much of 2018 after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee at training.

Geelong select Quinton Narkle with pick No.60 in the 2016 National Draft.

"Quinton is an elusive player around stoppages with good speed to burst away from congestion," Geelong list manager Stephen Wells said.

"He's clean with the footy and has the ability to push forward and hit the scoreboard."
