North Melbourne ruckman Tristan Xerri has turned his back on free agency and signed a bumper four-year contract extension in a welcome show of faith for the struggling Kangaroos.

They’ve got other serious concerns on the free agency front but the Kangaroos have locked away a gun on a bumper long-term deal.

Having played only 33 games before this season, the Roo entered the round ranked third in the competition for hit-outs and tackles, and fourth for centre clearances and total clearances. “Tristan is a very important pillar in the club’s plans for the future, so we’re rapt to add him to the list of players who have recommitted long-term,” Rawlings said.

Zurhaar, 25, will be a restricted free agent, while Davies-Uniacke is contracted until the end of next season but reportedly put talks on hold as he explores his options.
