Promising young Richmond defender, Jake Batchelor, has been rewarded for his impressive debut season at Tigerland in 2011 with a contract extension.

Batchelor, who made 16 senior appearances, and averaged 12.6 disposals per game, has signed a new deal, binding him to the Club at least until the end of the 2013 season.

Really really rate Batch.

Well done RFC.

So who is left needing a contract extension away from GWS? Lids? Thats it?

With BAtch and Houli holding down the running defender roles, perhaps Lids will be free to move into the midfield next year?

Very good on Batchelor, however I'm not convinced that Deledio will be with us after next season, I can just sense a few little warning bells.

Funny RodgerRJ because I am very confident Lids will be with us long term

I dont' know anything it's just a feeling I've got just like you're sensing the other way  ;D

Even with the advent of Free Agency we still hold all the aces with Lids as the Club can keep him if they match any FA offer he receives. You'd expect the Club to do that within reason, hence one of the reasons I am not concerned

Agreed.

Cant see him going anywhere, especially if the club's chasing are where we are coming from (rebuilding).

This decision just reeks of craig cameron.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

If you can tell me what his role entails and what parts he does poorly then you may convince me.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Dave Gourdis, Dan Connors, Matt White, Jake King, McGuane etc are a few of his contract specials. He's General Manager of football and List Manager isnt he ;D you'd think he could make better decisions on player contracts. And no, it's not all him but he signs off on it at least. listen to the bloke talk and look at his hair. he's poo :lol
