Trent CotchinRichmond captain Trent Cotchin has signed a contract extension, which will see him remain a Tiger until at least the end of the 2015 season.

Cotchin was due to come out of contract at the end of this season, but the Club recently moved to extend his stay at Tigerland for another two years.

“I’m very excited.  The Club’s going somewhere, and I want to be a part of the success that all involved with the Tigers crave,” Cotchin said.

He is saying to the club, you have two years to get into a GF or I am going to a club that is serious!

“We are really excited about what we have brought in. We have got great depth of players that can take us where we need to go. We are just putting some cream on the top at the moment,” he said.

Good result obviously.

In 2 years time, GC and GWS mega buck deals will be evened out with the rest of the comp. Cotchin isn't going anywhere now.
Go Tigers!

Cotchin, 23, became Richmond's youngest captain in more than 100 years when he took over from Chris Newman, and has won the club's past two best and fairest awards.

''Obviously you want to be locked into a contract as early as possible,'' he said. ''We want to keep the young group that we've got together now as close as we can over the next period of our careers, whether that's five or 10 years, and there's a lot of young guys that we do need to set the standard for.

''It's exciting. You look at the teams in the past - Geelong have been together for so long, and Sydney. They've all had success together because they've stuck as one.''
