Perhaps if he was deservedly signed early others in the team may also want to committ.... :whistle

Considering what he inherited I would say that he should be judged more on list development than where we finish. I think we will only win 10 games this season but in doing so we will see more improvement in terms of the list and the respective development of the player group.

BINGO

 :bow :bow :bow

He has done an excellent job so far. He took over a complete rabble. People placing minimum hurdles are not taking into consideration what Hardwick inherited. I would sign him now to a contract with a higher wage in 2012 and extension years in 2013 and 2014. In effect a 2 year deal because 2012 he is already contracted.

What if we finish 15th or worse this year?

Considering what he inherited I would say that he should be judged more on list development than where we finish. I think we will only win 10 games this season but in doing so we will see more improvement in terms of the list and the respective development of the player group.

Well if we're going to finish lowly at least this is the year to do it as it's the uncompromised 'super draft'.
Perhaps you're right & we should just extend his contract now for two years come what may.

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

Thanks WP.... yeh its been a terrible year..wasnt expecting to be informed
of the cancer but life likes to take detours we all dont like
but it makes us stronger in the end....

through the support from family and friends i made
it...but i will tell anyone please get checked and a great doctor
(ex RFC doctor) who was persistent....im 46 so guys if you
have family history of this dont delay it especially if you are over the
of 40 as well...as its a slient killer...

hoping to watch my beloved tigers climb
the mountain thats in front of this great club...

If you had read my post, you would have seen that he has told people close to him that he is not interested. I guess he could always change his mind!
But I wouldn't count on it.
Any other suggestions?
