Bio
Jason Geria’s journey with the CommBank Socceroos is a story of persistence and making the most of opportunities when they arrive.
The Canberra-born defender started his career at the AIS before making his professional breakthrough with Melbourne Victory in 2012. Across two spells with the club, Geria made close to 200 appearances and won the A-League Men Premiership and Championship double in 2014/15, as well as two Australia Cups.
Geria made his CommBank Socceroos debut against Greece in 2016 before enduring an eight-year wait for his next senior international appearance. His return under Head Coach Tony Popovic saw him establish himself back in the national team set-up and earn selection for his first major tournament.
At the FIFA World Cup 2026™, Geria made his World Cup debut during Australia’s memorable 2-0 victory over Türkiye and featured as the Socceroos progressed to the Round of 32.
