Exact opposite. Bonts has already said last year he wants the 'honour' of captaining our club. If you believe said gutless wonder, it's as if he was forced at gun point with tears streaming down his face to take the captaincy against his will and everyone's fault, except his, that he was forced to take it.

Re: WBFC - Player Contract Status
Players surely realise that they stay at their club for less money especially one that is winning premierships. They might get bigger money at the lower clubs but managers need to be reminding players that there is way more money to be made after footy if you are from a successful club. Most ex footballers involved i the AFL are premiership players. Not one invites the wooden spooners to events they invite triple premiership players. Look at Ablett went for the money and lost the passion. Would have been the mayor of Geelong if he had of stayed

Yep he's been offered a two year contract details to follow.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

You mentioned on the other thread, it's for less coin. With our banking and the ruling from the AFEL that said Essendon needed to pay Crammers wage last year, and we could bank that too, we could have somewhere between $1-2M to play with. We were prepared to offer Hurley $800,000 (whilst signing up our guns too), which was probably funded by the banking and normal list turnover to cover increase salaries for players like JJ etc.
If we then add, say another $150,000 from bringing Crammers down, then we have around $950,000 to go shopping with, as well as cba increases (so over $1M). That brings up big questions about whether we throw it all at say Nat Fyfe, or look to split it over two very good players).

Have been since 2013. Eventually they may get their man.

Must have a 300% salary cap.

Best the AFEL let them go to 400% of salary cap then. There's no actual way they're under now, and if they're re-signing Joe on the huge coin needed and signing other club big names.

Re: WBFC - Player Contract Status
With Adams signing on the dotted line, JJ remains our most critical re-sign but if Bailey Dale produces more games like on the weekend, he'll be hot property.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: WBFC - Player Contract Status
From the OP:
Jason Johannisen: 2017
Josh Dunkley: 2017
Stew Crameri: 2017
Fletcher Roberts: 2017
Lukas Webb: 2017
Bailey Dale: 2017
Kieran Collins: 2017
Mitch Honeychurch: 2017
Declan Hamilton: 2017
Jack Redpath: 2017
Dale Morris: 2017 (30's)
Matthew Boyd: 2017 (30's)
Bob Murphy: 2017 (30's)
Roarke Smith: 2017 (Rookie)
Bradley Lynch: 2017 (Rookie)
Josh Prudden: 2017 (Rookie)
Nathan Mc-Mc: 2017 (Rookie)
Tristan Tweedie: 2017 (Rookie)
The oldies and the rookies will be done at the end of the year you'd think. So there's a few kids after JJ that need signing up, then some mid range players, but JMac is powering through his work.
