Gold Coast Suns midfielder Brandon Matera has re-signed to the AFL club through to the end of the 2014 season.
The son of former Fitzroy and West Coast player Wally Matera and nephew of former Eagles Peter and Phil Matera, Brandon played 12 matches and booted 15 goals with the Suns, before his year ended through injury.
"It was a bit of a disappointing way to end my first year, I suppose I would have loved to have played every game, but I worked hard during my recovery and am hoping for an injury-free season next year," Matera said.
Matera joined the Suns as one of the twelve 17 year olds made available to the club under the AFL's draft concessions.
