Electrifying forward Bobby Hill has put pen to paper and signed a four-year contract extension with the Club.
Contracted until the end of 2026, the new deal will see the 2023 Norm Smith Medallist remain in black and white until at least 2030.
Starting 2025 with a bang, Hill represented the AFL Indigenous All Stars in Perth, where he starred with four goals. In his first six games for Collingwood, he has been instrumental across the forward line, hitting the scoreboard with 10 majors and adding a dynamic presence in the Magpies' attack.
Already contracted until the end of 2026, the 25-year-old said now was the right time to recommit.
“I’m excited to sign on and stoked to be hanging around at the Pies. It feels like home here,” Hill said.
“My family loves it, especially my son, he loves it, running around like he owns the place.
“Collingwood is my future and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my career here.
“Getting the taste of premiership success in 2023, that’s what drives me to want to play more footy here at the Pies in front of our big fan base.
“From now to 2030, I’d love to achieve more premiership success but I really just want to keep playing consistent footy and making more memories to cherish for the rest of my life.”
Hill made his AFL debut for GWS Giants in 2019, going on to play 41 games for the Giants before being traded to Collingwood ahead of the 2023 season.
Taking his game to another level since joining the Magpies, Hill quickly became a mainstay in Collingwood's lineup, with his breakout moment coming in the 2023 AFL Grand Final, where he played a starring role and earned the prestigious Norm Smith Medal as best on ground.
Continuing his strong form in 2024, Hill claimed the Gordon Coventry Trophy as Collingwood's leading goalkicker and was awarded the 2024 Virgin Australia Mark of the Year.
General Manager of List and Talent Strategy Justin Leppitsch said the Club was thrilled to have Hill commit for a further four years.
"Bobby is a much-loved member of our Club and it's fantastic to have him extend until at least the end of 2030," Leppitsch said.
"Since arriving at the Club, Bobby has become an integral part of our forward line and continuously works to grow and develop his own game.
"At only 25, Bobby has a lot of football ahead of him, and we look forward to seeing many more magical moments that will excite our fans."
Hill joins Josh Daicos, Dan Houston and Harry Perryman as Collingwood players contracted until 2030, while Nick Daicos and Isaac Quaynor are committed until 2029.
