FREMANTLE midfielder David Mundy is adamant his unresolved contract status won’t grow into a distraction, saying he’ll weigh up football and family factors before making a final call on his AFL future.
Mundy is at the peak of his powers and will be in hot demand if he decides to test the market as a restricted free agent at the end of the season.
Family ties could persuade the 28-year-old Victorian to finish his career at a Melbourne-based club on a lucrative three or four-year deal.
AFL great Jason Dunstall said Mundy would be a perfect recruit for Richmond, who have endured a spectacular fall from grace since finishing fifth last year.But Fremantle remain in the box seat to retain his services. Not only is the club in premiership mode, but Mundy’s wife is a West Australian.
However, complicating matters is the uncertainty surrounding Nat Fyfe’s new deal.
Fyfe has already declared he wants to stay at Fremantle, but the terms of his contract are yet to be nutted out.

Mundy is likely to wait until Fyfe’s deal is sorted before making a call on his own future.
