CARLTON'S dream end to the season keeps getting better, with key defender Mitch McGovern the latest to pledge his future to the club, re-signing for another two years.

Locked in to play finals for the first time in 10 years, the Blues have secured another important signature as they build towards trying to break their 28-year premiership drought.

As was the case with recently re-signed Carlton tall Tom De Koning, McGovern's future at Ikon Park has been clouded for much of the year as rival clubs came calling.

But the 28-year-old will remain at Carlton until at least the end of 2025.

"He's had a really solid year as part of our defence, his most consistent with the club so far," Carlton's head of list management Nick Austin said.

"Mitch has slotted seamlessly into the backline since making the move, his intercept marking and ball use have been terrific assets to the way we want to play.

"We can't wait to see what the next two years hold for Mitch at the Blues as he continues to hone his defensive craft and take his game to another level."

McGovern has played 58 games for Carlton, including 18 this season, after switching to the club from Adelaide at the end of 2018 on a bumper five-year contract.

Carlton, which is on a nine-game winning streak, can lock in a home elimination final by defeating Greater Western Sydney at Marvel Stadium on Sunday.
