Re: Maric resigns

MELBOURNE forward Addam Maric has re-signed with the club for the next two seasons.

Club list manager Tim Harrington confirmed the 19-year-old had inked a new deal for 2010 and 2011.

"We've just locked in another one with Maric," he told melbournefc.com.au.

"There are a couple [of contracts] still in progress and I'm confident they'll be done, but they're not finalised as yet."

Maric, who was drafted at No.21 in the 2007 NAB AFL Draft, has played 11 matches, including six in 2009, before a shoulder injury ended his season after round 13.

An outstanding kick, he is a forward with the potential to play midfield long-term.

Although long-serving Melbourne trio Russell Robertson, Paul Wheatley and Matthew Whelan have departed, the club has yet to make any further changes to its playing list.

Harrington said the Demons would review its squad post the October 5-9 exchange period.

"We'll finalise a few things and state our position after trade week," he said.

The Demons recently re-signed skipper James McDonald for 2010 and promising youngsters Cale Morton, Jack Grimes and Stef Martin until the end of 2011.

Re: Maric resigns

But yes i did read this earlier which is promising. Despite knowing this i was concerned when reading the title. Lets hope he has a big pre-season.
 
Re: Maric resigns

Yeah, I saw this on the other forum before... just as well by the look of things ;)
 
Good to see. He has beautiful balance in a contest and that can't be taught. It's no good being the most talented player around if you are on the ground and can't get the ball. I expect this boy to show us some really nice things in the years to come.
 
Obviously has a bit of pressure next year with Morton and Grimes coming along so quickly. Smart move to give him some confidence with 2 more years instead of 1.

He needs a big preseason of running I think. Not so worried about weights with Maric - if he can get himiself a strong running ability he'll be much better positioned to push to the next level.
