Brisbane Player Re-signings.

[Peter]

The release of Rockliff should free up some cash. If they can nail down Witherden this year, then really taking steps forward

Although welcome thoughts on the value of contract. Nearly $500k a season at 20 sight unseen at present is a bit over the top. 

Hopefully does not cut down the amount of money we have to re-sign Witherden.

That is a lot of coin for an untried talent but 1.2 over 4 years sounds a lot better might even up being quite a bargain

http://www.lions.com.au/news/2018-06-19/bundy-resigns-

Bundy has extended his contract by 12 months to 2019.

These are the list of players whose contracts expire this year and still unsigned.
Jake Barrett
Claye Beams
Tom Bell
Rohan Bewick
Charlie Cameron
Liam Dawson
Matt Eagles
Mitchell Hinge
Luke Hodge
Ryan Lester
Marco Paparone
Mitch Robinson
Joshua Walker

Who on the list are still priorities ?- Would say Robbo and Charlie deserve extensions, Hodge if he feels his body still has it for another year guiding down back.
Of the others maybe Eagles, Paparone, Lester (because coach loves him but do not know why) and Dawson (who has not had a good run due to injury) could get an extension.
Would delist the rest thoughts?

Another extension of contract with Zac Bailey extending to 2021.  We are starting to keep our youngsters with Andrews, McCluggage and Rayner also signed till 2021.

and the re-signings continue with Brandon Starcevich extending contract to 2021. Shows the change in culture at the club with youngsters wanting to stay. Top 8 in 2020.

Not a resigning but at least he'll be there next year. I like the commentary from the club around this too, "We're hoping by the time his contract ends he'll want to stay a few more years and be a part of our comeback" or to similar effect.
