The Brisbane Lions have invested in their youth by extending the contracts of Connor Ballenden, Tom Joyce and James Madden.

The trio are integral players in the NEAFL’s undefeated side and all are chasing their dream to make their AFL debut.

All have extended their contracts with the Club until at least the end of the 2021 season.

The unseen: Who is yet to play senior footy at your club in 2019?
Tom Joyce: Had a slow start to his pre-season following hip surgery, but much like his fellow draftees, has improved with more games. More likely to push his case next year.

Who might play in 2019? With a reliable squad of 28-30 players to choose from, injury is the only avenue for any of the above to get a call-up. Lyons, Skinner and Berry are the most likely candidates if injury should strike.
 
Cockatoo Continuing To Build

After returning from a leg injury, Tom Joyce has also been a welcome return with his grunt and poise through the midfield.

“Joycey’s been really consistent since he’s returned. He’s got elite hands tight in congestion. His real strength is his clearance and contested work. He is a clean, one touch player.

“To have 18 contested possessions and 10 clearances is really impressive and he’s been a strong inclusion for us.”
