Brendon Gale on SEN @ 11.30am 17/2
« on: February 17, 2012, 01:08:38 PM »
I didn't catch all of it but Benny Gale was on KB's show this morning...

* Spoke about and praised sponsor Jeep who as we've all heard has re-signed to 2014.

* KB mentioned that there are a few up and coming sides this year (Ess, Melb, North) along with us and that we could improve and still finish 13th. Benny said something along the lines that Dimma's first two years were developing years but now most of our best players are 24 y.o. and are our top 5 in the B&F last year are [mostly] 24.

* As a club we're happy with the progress Damien has made over the past two years and Dimma's new contract will be sorted out in due course. Benny said he doesn't plan to make a running commentary on it.

* Similar words about Lids and his new contract. Benny said he expects Lids to be a Tiger for a long time. He's our fastest player to reach 150 games, dual B&F and life member.

* Qualified pumping up of both Cotch and Dusty by saying they still have huge upside left in them and in terms of Dusty still has areas in his game he needs to work on.

Going by Benny Gale's comments today it seems the Club is pretty confident Lids will stick around and as with Dimma the new contract will be done without much fuss ignoring any media beat-ups.
