Given the age profile of our midfield, the guys leaving and his form when injury free, he is in prime position to play more football and become a key cog.
That second line would be why Busslinger signed another two years with our age demographic in the backline.

Re: Player Contract Status
With Bont coming out of contract end of 25, how soon do we expect something to get done?
I'd hope we have him tied away pretty soon!

If we trade away Daniel, Macrae and Smith without getting in a player on a large contract, we should have a lot of cap space. What we do with frontloading etc will be interesting.

Not to say that Bont isn’t worth whatever he wants, but using a new warchest to sign players we already have because we’re already perfect would be some Bulldogs shit.

And length. I know he's wanted shorted deals to keep himself motivated.
I'm kind of wanting another four or five though at whatever he wants.

We could do a mock up of him in his new Bulldogs jumper.

My understanding is that he does have offers from other clubs but they are DFA offers...basically he will get a job somewhere but no-one will trade for him.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

If that isn’t a great sales pitch what is?
