FOR young Demon Tom Sparrow, re-resigning with Melbourne was an easy decision.
The 21-year-old put pen to paper on Thursday morning, sealing his spot in the red and blue for a further two years.
“I’m pretty pumped to be hanging around for the next few years,” Sparrow told Melbourne Media.
“I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
“And I think I speak on behalf of the rest of the group when I say we’ve got trust in our staff, our coaches and each other.”
Reflecting on the recent achievements of the club, the Demon explained his excitement for what the team has to offer and their opportunity to create further success in the 2022 Toyota AFL Season.
“I think the potential of the group is exciting,” Sparrow said.
“And I’m really looking forward to seeing how far we can go.
“You’ve got Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver, Jack Viney who are all elite midfielders and I think they can really help me become better.”
