MELBOURNE star Aaron Davey has ended speculation about his future by signing a new four-year deal which will see him remain with the Demons until at least the end of 2013.
There had been reports that the 26-year-old wanted to leave the club to play alongside his younger brother Alwyn at Essendon.
Davey enjoyed a career-best season in 2009, playing all 22 matches and averaging 23 possessions per game.
Melbourne list manager Tim Harrington said Davey was an important part of the club's future.
"We are very pleased that Aaron has committed to the Melbourne Football Club," Harrington said.
"He is a player who is held in high regard and is a big part of the club's future success."
"Aside from his obvious playing talents, Aaron's leadership qualities are first class."
"His work, particularly with our young group of indigenous players, has been outstanding and has gone a long way to contributing to the success of players such as Liam Jurrah."
