Oisin Mullin has officially joined Geelong for the 2023 season as a category B rookie, a year after signing his original deal with the Cats.
Mullin inked a deal back in 2021 to join Geelong, but opted to remain in Ireland for the 2022 season, instead playing for Mayo in the Gaelic Athletic Association.
Geelong respected the 22-year-old's decision to remain in Ireland back in January and followed his progress at Mayo, but are now keen to welcome the young Irishman down under.
