Shane Edwards re-signs for a further 3 years (RFC site)
« on: October 26, 2015, 03:12:57 PM »
Talented Richmond playmaker Shane Edwards has signed a three-year contract extension with the Club.

This means that Edwards, who would have come out of contract at the completion of the 2016 season, and also qualified as a free agent, will remain a Tiger until the end of 2019 at least.

Given the fact that Edwards turned 27 yesterday (October 25), he seems set to see out his AFL career with the Tigers.

For all the criticisms of the club and their recruiting, the one positive is they continue to sign our own.

Good work Richardson and great to see the loyalty from Titch

Very nicely done RFC, gee had we of gotten one of Aish, Treloa or Redden with this signing and what we got in Yarran and the smashing machine I would be absolutely wrapped.

But this alone is good news. Now for Ty. Get these signings done now so we can focus on getting a FA next year instead of trying to spend our time keeping what we have.

Well done Tiges. :gotigers

yep same, been a rollercoaster ride for me - was a big fan when we drafted him, maintained the love for the first 3 years regardless of the under achieving but then gave up on him thinking he'll never come good. Happy to see his last 18 months have been very good and like you said, hes a no BS type of character. I'm a fan and happy to see him re-sign

"To have Shane extend his contract for a further three years, with a year still to run on his current deal, is a great result," said Richmond's Football GM Dan Richardson.

"It's a strong show of faith from Shane, who could have entertained free agency at the end of next year, but wanted to continue with this group and influence the direction the club is heading.

"Shane continues to impress on the field, as shown by his start to the 2015 season, when he was clearly one of our best players before being injured.

"He's a real favourite with team-mates and supporters alike, and is also developing into a fine leader around the club.

“It’s good . . . a bit of security.  And, I see a really bright future at Richmond.  So, I wouldn’t second guess it at all,” Edwards told ‘Roar Vision’.

“I want to stay at Richmond as long as I can.

“I love it here and free agency never really crossed my mind.”

“I definitely think my best footy’s still ahead of me,” he said.
