Geelong utility Jack Henry has inked a new three-year deal to remain at Kardinia Park until the end of the 2024 season.

Henry has developed into a serviceable defender/forward utility for coach Chris Scott across his 71 career games - dating back to 2018 - cementing his place in the Cats' best 22.

The 22-year-old is currently enjoying a career-best season, recording 13.8 disposals, 4.8 marks, 2.4 inside 50's and a goal per game from his five matches in the hoops this year.

“I grew up across the road from GMHBA Stadium and was a huge Geelong supporter as a kid. For my childhood dream to be a reality, and now to secure my time here for another three years is amazing,” Henry said, per Cats Media. 

“I’ve been enjoying trialing a few different positions as a forward, back and ruck. But clocking up some wins with my teammates is the most important thing.

“It’s the best workplace you could possibly have. I want to play footy here for as long as possible, so I’m stoked.”
