Collingwood Signs Jeremy Howe and Liam Puncher to New Contracts

Collingwood has secured defender Jeremy Howe with a one-year extension and Liam Puncher until 2028, marking significant moves in their roster management.

Collingwood has confirmed new contracts for two of its defenders, with Jeremy Howe signing a one-year extension and Liam Puncher committing to the club until the end of 2028.

Howe's new deal will see him enter his 17th season in the AFL, making him the oldest player at Collingwood following Scott Pendlebury's departure. He has been a key figure in the team's defense under coach Craig McRae, and his leadership will be vital for the upcoming season.

Puncher, who joined Collingwood during the 2026 mid-season draft, made a notable impact by playing eight games in his debut season, showcasing his skills from the SANFL. The club's General Manager of List and Talent Strategy, Justin Leppitsch, expressed satisfaction in retaining both players, highlighting Howe's leadership and Puncher's competitive spirit. Meanwhile, decisions regarding other players, including Ed Allan and Tim Membrey, are still pending as the club navigates roster changes.
