St Kilda forward Arryn Siposs has signed a new three-year deal at the club.

The 19-year-old has played 15 matches for the Saints since being drafted at pick 75 in the 2010 AFL Draft and has impressed, particularly with his kicking skills.

Siposs is highly regarded at St Kilda and club coach Scott Watters was pleased after he re-committed to the club.

"Arryn's signing is another positive for the club," Watters said.

"This year Arryn has shown a strong commitment to improving his overall game and with continued hard work, he has a great opportunity to develop into a multi-role player and a significant contributor to the team."

Siposs - who was awarded an AFL Rising Star nomination for his performance against Essendon in Round 15 - was equally happy to have signed a new contract.

"To play for the club I've supported all my life is very special," Siposs said.

"I've been pleased with my form this season and excited to be continuing my progression with St Kilda. There is a great vibe throughout the entire club and I'm happy to be part its future."
