Rowan Marshall will remain a Saint until the end of 2027, finalising a five-year deal with the club today.
The 26-year-old ruckman’s signature is a welcome addition to the Saints’ suite of recent significant re-signings, which includes Jack Steele and Max King.
“We’re really pleased to have Rowan commit long-term to the club,” Head of List Management James Gallagher said.
“Rowan made it clear from the beginning of these discussions that his heart was at the Saints and he was keen to stay long term, so we set about going through a process with his Management and have arrived at a position where both Rowan and the club are really happy.
“Rowan’s influence both on and off the field has really grown over his time at the club and with only 77 senior games under his belt, we are very confident that the best of Rowan Marshall is still to come.
Marshall, a proud Portland product, said he couldn’t wait to continue his time as a Saint.
“I love this club and really believe in the direction we’re heading,” Marshall said.
“We’ve all got big goals for where we want to take this group, with the ultimate success of a premiership at the top of that list.
Marshall joined the Saints via pick 10 in the 2016 National Rookie Draft. Since debuting against the Swans in Round 18 of the 2017 season, he has gone on to play an additional 77 games in red, white and black.
