Are you saying, Rocco that the only player guaranteed to be playing with us in 2017, is Crameri? He's a stalwart already.

Not a bad guess though.
That's a fair few players. They must have a similar style to me when I play Football Manager. Leave them to the last year because CBF resigning players
Whilst you don't want your stars going on the open market, there's a level of comfort that comes with long contracts and being re-signed early, sometimes knowing your career is on the line drives you to get more out of yourself
Of the remaining players out of contract at the end of the year, only Mitch Wallis I would be re-signing now, the others can prove their worth. Dahlhaus & Roughead were good re-signings though
I think besides a few veterans , I'd be singing Mitch Wallis Talia and Easton Wood
I'd add Honeychurch to that list too.
Presumably if they elect to play on, Morris, Murphy, and Boyd will get further 1 year deals. Picken is probably in line to get a couple of years.
Of the others coming out of contract this year, most are in that wait and see territory. Grant, Redpath, Roberts, Cordy and Darley are the most likely to be re-signed, but I don't see any huge rush in doing so at the moment. There aren't going to be huge offers from other suitors coming in and whilst they are in or close to the best 22 (and otherwise, handy depth) if they stagnate or go backwards over the balance of the year, they could be squeezed out as Bevo makes his mark on the list.

Quote:
Jake Stringer and Jack Macrae are the latest Bulldogs to commit to the Club after agreeing to contract extensions this week.
Following the signatures of Jordan Roughead and Luke Dahlhaus earlier this month, Stringer and Macrae have committed to the Western Bulldogs until the end of the 2018 season.
Sign Talia too please.
Didn't I hear that we wouldn't be able to re-sign our young guns?
Bad news for a few media types me thinks.
;)
