Great news! An up and coming midfield gun already added to the likes of Hogan JKH who signed extensions.

    Wasn't there a report a few weeks back we were locking away Jeremy Howe, and then they slip that little nugget in the last line of this article. Or is that common knowledge?

    Strewth is this panic stations stuff? The kid has just started with us. I would wait to next year for these negotiations myself.

    I have no problems at all if both Brayshaw and Petracca both sign extensions. Far from being panic stations it is a sign that the club is gaining some cred!

    We signed up Viney two years before he came to the club...

    That might be considered more premature than this.

    Fantastic news.

    Cant wait to see this kid play in the Red and Blue.

    Good news, would be nice to see Petracca extend his for another year too.

    Tom Boyd set a precedent last trade period so the longer we can lock our young stars away for, the better.

    All first round picks should be 3 year deals with a club option for a 4th at least. It's fair reward for putting such faith in a player.

    It takes a special kind of hubris to think you should leave a club before that time anyway and a special lack of talent for a first round pick to be out the door before then. Somehow we've managed both in the last 5 years.

    There's no desire for Brayshaw to leave any time soon and these days a contract doesn't do much anyway. There's little chance (although I bet we'll try to find it in him) that he'll be so bad or so injured as to not show some form, he's already showing a bit at training. There's also a reality that he's got some filling out to do and some developing as well so why bet on yourself dominating before your time. All round it's a nice set of circumstances for both parties to show some goodwill. We get the asset locked in and the salary squared away for future planning, he gets some financial security.

    Make senses to me.

    If the club believes he is going to be good it is a much cheaper alternative locking him away for another two years now rather than waiting for 18 months of exposed form and then see his contract price increase significantly.

    But then we don't know what the third year deal is nutbean

    Wouldn't be surprised if its about Jeremy Howe putting off contract talks till the end of the year.

    That's "good" news?

    Didn't see the 'good' part..

    My bad, carry on..

    I don't really see this as a panic stations decision. I see it as both club and player committing to each other long term.

    Good move from my point of view.

    from what i was told it sounds like you might be spot on, Christian Petracca and Jimmy Toumpas are the other two who the club i'm sure will be moving to extend the contracts of if at all possible

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
