MAYO’S OISIN MULLIN has signed a one-year contract extension to remain with AFL  side Geelong Cats.

Mullin has now committed until at least the end of 2025, the club announcing the re-signing of the defender yesterday.

The Kilmaine native joined Geelong in November 2022 as a Category B rookie and made six appearances at AFL level in 2023.

“We acknowledge how courageous and brave the decision Oisin made to move to Australia, he has positively embedded himself into our football program and we are extremely happy with his development,” said Andrew Mackie, the Geelong Cats General Manager.
