In a major boost to the club’s future prospects, Collingwood has secured the signatures of three key players, with Jiath, Long, and McInnes all extending their commitment to the Magpies. The trio’s decision to re-sign with the club is a significant coup for Collingwood, as they look to build on their recent success and establish themselves as a genuine premiership contender.
Jiath, who has been one of the Magpies’ most impressive young players in recent seasons, has signed a two-year extension that will keep him at the club until the end of 2027. The 20-year-old has already shown himself to be a versatile and talented player, capable of playing in a variety of positions across the ground.
Long, who has been a mainstay of the Magpies’ defense since his debut in 2020, has also signed a two-year extension. The 23-year-old has established himself as one of the most reliable and consistent defenders in the competition, and his re-signing is a major boost to the club’s backline.
McInnes, who has been one of the Magpies’ most impressive players in the midfield, has signed a three-year extension that will keep him at the club until the end of 2028. The 22-year-old has already shown himself to be a talented and hard-working player, capable of winning the ball in tight and using it effectively on the outside.
The re-signing of Jiath, Long, and McInnes is a major coup for Collingwood, and is a testament to the club’s commitment to developing and retaining its young talent. The trio’s decision to extend their commitment to the club is also a major boost to the Magpies’ premiership prospects, as they look to build on their recent success and establish themselves as a genuine contender.
“We’re thrilled to have Jiath, Long, and McInnes commit to the club for the long-term,” said Collingwood’s General Manager of Football, Graham Wright. “These three players are an integral part of our team’s future, and we’re excited to see them continue to develop and grow as players.”
The re-signing of Jiath, Long, and McInnes is also a major endorsement of the club’s culture and direction. The trio’s decision to extend their commitment to the club is a testament to the Magpies’ strong team environment and the players’ desire to be part of a successful and sustainable team.
As the Magpies look to the future, they can do so with confidence, knowing that they have a talented and committed group of players who are dedicated to achieving success. With Jiath, Long, and McInnes leading the way, the Magpies are well-placed to make a deep run in the finals and bring a premiership back to the club.
