    West re-signs for two more

    Exciting first-year player Rhylee West has re-signed with the Western Bulldogs for two more seasons.

    The 19-year-old – who was due to come out of contract at the end of 2020 – will now remain in red, white and blue until at least the end of 2022.

    “I think we’re building something special in this playing group and I couldn’t miss the opportunity to be a part of it,” West said.

    “I feel like I’ve been able to play some strong footy in the VFL and then to make my AFL debut against Fremantle was an amazing feeling.

    “We’ve got a great bunch of boys here and I can’t wait for the next three years.”

    West made his AFL debut against Fremantle in round 19, collecting 14 disposals and kicking a goal.

    He has spent time in the midfield and up forward at VFL level for Footscray, averaging 20 disposals across his 14 games – including a 29-disposal, four-goal game last week against Essendon.

    General Manager of List and Recruiting, Sam Power, said West had a bright future.

    “Rhylee has really grown since joining the Club and it’s pleasing to lock him in for two more years,” Power said.

    “He is competitive and hard at the ball, with the ability to burst away from stoppages. As a forward, he has also been able to provide pressure and impact the scoreboard.

    “Rhylee handled himself really well in his first taste of AFL football, and has been strong at VFL level throughout the season.

    “We’re excited about what he can produce in the years to come.”

    West joined the Bulldogs with pick 26 in the 2018 NAB AFL Draft and is one of five father-son draftees on the Club’s list, alongside Lachie Hunter, Mitch Wallis, Tom Liberatore and Zaine Cordy.

    He becomes the 14th player to re-sign at VU Whitten Oval in 2019.

    Re: Player Contract Status

    Great news on West, Sam doing a great job so far.
    Hope the club have an announcement on re-signing Bailey Dale very soon.
    IMO Dicko to get another year on recent form and that will be about it.

    Re: Player Contract Status

    So by my count that’s 6 delistings/retirements (Webb, Roberts, Morris, Williams, Boyd, Picken; Williams possibly to the RL although you’d think he’ll get a better offer elsewhere). Is that enough room for our draft intake plus all these other guys we’re allegedly taking on, or does a hard call need to be made on Dicko?

    We could be in a bit of a jam if all these offers are legit and we’re more of a destination club than we think we are.

    As far as the questions over Buku go I am going to go with a standard 1 year rookie contract until the end of 2019 until someone can point me in the direction of evidence to the contrary.

    According to this he only has a one year contract

    Other players are also listed here although not right up to date with latest signings.

    I would love to see Baily Smith extended further.

    I'd rather let a few players from other clubs down gently than constantly have them turn their backs on us.

    Thanks BAD. I do refer to Zero Hanger and Footy Wire although I'm not sure they are 100% accurate (but then what source is?).

    Not sure it was ever reported in the media. But you'll have to take my word for it - Buku has 2 years.

    PM if you like Axe Man.

    Re: Player Contract Status

    18 players out of contract at the end of next year seems bloody scary on paper.

    I wouldn't mind seeing a few more locked in, potentially at cheaper prices before we become the powerhouse of the competition and their stocks rise too much more (Schache, Bailey Smith, and Lloyd would have to be the highest priority).

    Re: Player Contract Status

    From the outside looking in it appears we will be conservative and have minimal list changes which is slightly disappointing.
    More of an In Bruges guy?
