Port Adelaide on cusp of signing key forward Todd Marshall on mega deal
Port Adelaide is on the cusp of locking in Todd Marshall, with the forward now all but certain to stay at Alberton on a long-term deal.
The 25-year-old will pen a new contract of at least four years, with all parties confident an arrangement can be struck before round one at the latest.
Conversations before Christmas were positive, meaning there is little doubt Marshall will be a Port player until at least the end of 2028 when he does put pen to paper.
The restricted free agent, who was sure to be at the top of several wishlists around the league, has been on a modified program this pre-season due to hip surgery.
The injury saw Marshall, who was briefly a member of the GWS academy as a teenager, battle through the back half of the season, often struggling to train at all during the week in order to be fit for games.
Despite this, the Murray Bushrangers product managed 36 goals from 21 games and will ramp up his training across the next two months ahead of the start of the season.
Marshall’s pending signature will be another significant win for the Power.
The club locked away Zak Butters (2026) and new captain Connor Rozee (2032) in the same week last month.
