Geelong Cats are excited to announce a trio of re-signings, with defenders Zach Guthrie and Oisin Mullin, and young midfielder Jhye Clark all signing contract extensions.
Guthrie and Mullin have both committed until at least the end of 2025, signing one-year contract extensions, while Geelong’s 2022 first-round selection Clark has signed for a further year, a deal that will keep him at GMHBA Stadium until at least the end of 2026.
A local Geelong product out of Queenscliff/Geelong Falcons, Clark was selected with the eighth selection in the 2022 AFL National Draft.
Making his debut in Round 9 last year against Richmond, Clark has impressed across the pre-season and played an important part in last night’s win against St Kilda.
Guthrie, now in his eighth year has become a key piece in Geelong’s defence, playing every game for the Cats since Round 8, 2022, including a key role in the Cats’ Premiership winning team in 2022.
The 25-year-old was rewarded with a career-high fourth-place finish in the 2023 Carji Greeves Medal count, following a strong season that saw him average a career-high 16.1 disposals, 5.6 marks and 2.2 spoils per game.
