Ivanhoe Amateurs congratulates defender Nick Geary on his 50^th club game in Round 15 (July 31).

“Gears” is a former Under 19 who has developed into a first-class senior footballer in recent years, playing mainly in defence.

A quiet achiever, Nick’s courage is exemplary and he backs his judgment to good effect at each and every contest.

Whether that’s plucking an intercept mark, spoiling opponents, applying maximum pressure or rebounding out of the back half, Nick can be counted on to get the job done. His disposals are a joy to behold too.

Well done Gears – keep your motor running.
