Star Lionsโ forward Logan Morris is off the market after signing a two-year extension to remain in Brisbane until the end of 2029.
Although he was unlikely to join the Tassie Devils when they enter the AFL in 2028, he was certain to receive huge offers from Victorian clubs desperate for a key forward.
However Morris, who was drafted from the Western Jets with pick 31 in the 2023 national draft, has decided to continue his career at the Gabba having kicked 144 goals from 69 matches so far.
He has already kicked 67 goals this season, including a haul of eight in the final round of the home and away season against Collingwood.
Morrisโs decision puts the Lions in a strong position as they enter this Saturdayโs preliminary final against Hawthorn on a mission to win their third flag in a row.
Zac Bailey resisted a huge offer from Adelaide to remain with the club. He signed a nine-year deal last week, while veteran Dayne Zorko also signed on for another season.
The Lions are likely to lose 2025 premiership player Sam Marshall, who has interest from Melbourne, Essendon, the Western Bulldogs and St Kilda, as he seeks senior opportunities.
Melbourne and the Bombers are also interested in promising forward Will McLachlan, while star midfielder Lachie Neale is expected to join Collingwood once the season is over.
