Way to ruin the holidays’: You’ll never guess who has a problem with Freo gun’s monster contract extension

‘Way to ruin the holidays’: You’ll never guess who has a problem with Freo gun’s monster contract extension

Hayden Young has signed a monster six-year extension to stay at Fremantle until 2033, becoming the longest-contracted player in the AFL.

However, his signing has not been universally acclaimed, with Kane Cornes taking to X to vent his frustration at the decision.

The 23-year-old was already locked in for three more seasons after signing a four-year deal in 2022, before committing to the extension on Wednesday. He is the only player in the AFL to be contracted until 2033, having turned his back on exploring free agency at the end of his previous deal.
