BRENT Moloney says he is hopeful of extending his career another four years after officially signing with the Brisbane Lions today.

The former Melbourne midfielder, 28, has agreed to a two-year deal with the Lions after the Demons confirmed they would not match Brisbane's offer for the restricted free agent.

After a whirlwind 72 hours flying back from an overseas holiday and then immediately to Brisbane for a medical test yesterday, Moloney said he was relieved the deal had been finalised.


Moloney ready to roar as a Lion

"I always believed I would find somewhere,'' Moloney said today as he tried his new Lions' colours on at Etihad Stadium.

"It was just obviously this free agency is all new and I didn't really know what to expect.

"It was a little bit of a waiting game, but I'm just glad it's all done.

"I felt that Brisbane was the right fit for me...I'm just really excited to become a Brisbane Lion.''

The Lions will be Moloney's third club and the Demons' 2011 best-and-fairest said he still had plenty to offer.

"I'm only 28 years old so I think I've still got three, maybe four years of footy left,'' Moloney said.

"Hopefully I can get some success up there. They won 10 games last year and hopefully we can build on that and play some finals footy.

"Vossy (coach Michael Voss) is obviously a player that I looked up to when I was at Geelong and my early days at Melbourne and I'm really looking forward to playing under a respected player and coach of his calibre.''

Moloney said he knew his time at the Demons was up and it was time to make a fresh start.

"It was quite frustrating (this year), but that's footy and that's life and you have to move on quickly,'' he said.

"I felt that my time was up at Melbourne. I really enjoyed my time there and made a lot of friends.

"I think that they (the Demons) have got a good young list, but I just felt that I wasn't going to be in that next premiership plan.

"I felt it was time to move on and now I am a Brisbane Lion.''
