    I'm in. I hope we do look to extend, we've done this with a few younger players recently - no harm in it.
    Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

        I know it's early days, and we're all excited but Gary Lyon said something along the lines of 'theres always been a suspicion that this kid might be the best of the lot of the current crop of younger players'. I would extend his contract no problems at all.

            Another quality performance. Should have had 3, but his clean hands in those conditions were a step above.
            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              10 year deal surely.

                And extendabonts for me too. We should enter negotiations straight away with his people.

                In the old days we would exchange hostages as a sign of good faith.
                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  10 years $750K a year. Bargain.

                    We signed extensions Macrae, Stringer & Hrovat pretty quickly with Prudden getting an extra year too - I can't see much of an issue with Bonti signing on.

                      Just announced on the Footy Show by Damian Barrett that the club is going to extend The Bont's contract to the end of 2017. Good to hear they're locking him away.

                        Good news. I'd have even considered another couple of years up front.

                              Hang on! None of us normally believe Barrett, why now?!?

                                The odds are he will be right eventually, hopefully it is at least with goods news for the club.
                                It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.
