Brisbane midfielder Ely Smith has signed an extension with the club, that will see him remain at the Lions until at least the end of the 2022 season.

Smith was selected at pick 21 in last year's AFL Draft, but spent all of 2019 in the Lions' NEAFL side.

The 19-year-old will be hoping he can make his debut for the Lions in 2020.

โ€œItโ€™s a great feeling knowing that Iโ€™ll be part of this Club for another few years,โ€ Smith told the club's website.

โ€œItโ€™s been a learning curve; knowing how to prepare correctly and the craft work required, but Iโ€™ve really enjoyed my time so far.โ€
