Francis Evans Biography

Port Adelaide delists Quinton Narkle, Francis Evans, Tom Scully and Kyle Marshall.

"Quinton and Frankie have contributed really positively to our club, at both AFL and SANFL level," Port list manager Jamie Cripps said.

"They provided good depth for us when we needed it, and we are grateful for the time they spent at Port Adelaide."

Port Adelaide signs former Geelong player Francis Evans as a delisted free agent.

"Going into the off-season we recognised a need to bolster our small forward stocks and Francis is a player we identified as suiting that need," Port Adelaide list manager Jason Cripps said.

"We know he has an eye for goal but is also not immune to working hard to win the ball and keep it in the forward line."

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."

Francis Evans makes his AFL debut for Geelong at Kardinia Park with 7 disposals (7 kicks), 4 marks, a tackle and 2 goals in a 1-point win over Brisbane.
