The whispers began when Adelaide football director Mark Ricciuto recently suggested on Triple M that the Lions were keen to offer Dixon a four-year deal to move back to Queensland.

The star Power forward on Wednesday extended his contract with his club for a further three seasons.

Davies said the Power werenโ€™t annoyed by Ricciutoโ€™s comments, who โ€œdid get rightโ€ that multiple clubs were into Dixon.

However, Davies added it โ€œprobably irks when you talk about one club and not the rest of themโ€.

โ€œCharlie had a number of clubs who were after him, but he decided to stay, which is great for us,โ€ Davies said.

โ€œHeโ€™s a guy who is such a beacon of strength for us, guys walk taller around him.

โ€œHe is a really important signature and as you heard last week there were plenty of clubs after his signature.โ€

Dixon had planned to move back to Queensland after signing with Port Adelaide from Gold Coast back in 2015.

But the star forward, who is in All-Australian form, said he has โ€œmade Adelaide my home nowโ€.

โ€œI sort of did think about some other options but at the end of the day it just didnโ€™t feel right for me and the right fit was Port Adelaide,โ€ he said.

โ€œOver my last couple of years here the club has done a lot for me, theyโ€™ve helped me not just in my football but my off-field stuff as well.

โ€œI suppose my first couple of years here it was my first winter coming from Queensland and I was like it seems like itโ€™s raining every day maybe Iโ€™ll just do my five years and then retire and go back home to Queensland.

โ€œBut Iโ€™ve fallen in love with Adelaide and I canโ€™t really see myself anywhere else, I love the place, I love the people love the club

โ€œAdelaide has changed me and I can see myself long term here, so it was an easy decision in the end.โ€

Dixon is currently third in the Coleman Medal race with 27 goals for the ladder-leading Power.
