Any news on the re-signing? Last I heard, we had tabled an offer he was happy with then the Storm weighed in with an offer and he was considering his options.

Isn't David gower the guy they were saying has never been offered a contract for more then a year? I would of thought if we offered him 2-3 year extension he would be wrapped!! And I can't see the storm signing him for more then 12 months
As long as it is within reason, we can not afford to pay overs anymore. I hope he can see were the Eels are heading and wants to be apart of the ride.
Come on board David, you know you want to.
To me Gower has been our most consistent forward all yr.I agree with Tragic that we cant throw the kitchen sink at him but definitely needs to be resigned asap
Agree on the extended contract - give him a 2-3 year deal. It would be his first of that length in his career - that said, he did have a later start. DG is 28 - still got a few good years left in him I think and he has been one of our best - he's our forward mortar. Try get him over the line with the time of the contract more than the $.
3 years is too long. Anything more than 2 should be reserved for spine players or very damaging forwards. Gower is neither, he dors a good job and he's done a better than expected job for the team. On his next contract we'll probably be paying slight overs. After all when we have a full 17 think he's fighting very hard for starting 13.
I think we should lock him in for a few years, we have plenty of explosive young guys coming through but Gower is solid and not afraid of hard work. He has a head on his shoulders like Peats, he has worked hard to be where he is, and takes nothing for granted.
"Hearing that as well. I wouldn't be happy if I was Thomas Jenkins... either way MON and Ryles need to have their pulse on this. We are in desperate need of better centres. "
"There are also statements saying the bulldogs won't stand in his way. This is the story every single time. He has never spoken to anyone, it's all bullshit, he knows nothing. While he is packing his locker and signing the release forms during his…"

If we were not to retain David we would be M.A.D. or worse, Loopy.
