Geelong midfielder Tanner Bruhn has signed a two-year contract extension that will see him remain at GMHBA Stadium until at least the end of 2027.
The 22-year-old, who was already contracted for 2025, joined the Cats in late 2022 via a trade with GWS Giants, and has been a consistent figure for the Cats since arriving, playing 29 of a possible 36 games.
A Geelong local who played his football for Newtown and Chilwell, Bruhn was drafted to GWS with the 12th selection before making the switch to Geelong in the 2022 trade period.
Since arriving, Bruhn has continued to develop, averaging career-high disposals (18.45), tackles (4.6), clearances (5.5) and score involvements (4.1) in 2024, as well as hitting the scoreboard kicking three goals in the first half of the season.
