Tim English has committed his future to the Western Bulldogs, signing a two-year extension to remain at VU Whitten Oval until the end of the 2024 season.

The 24-year-old has started the season in fantastic fashion, averaging 22 disposals, 22 hit-outs and six clearances per game, surging into the elite category of ruckman within the competition.

Originally from Western Australia, English was drafted at Pick 19 in the 2016 National Draft, immediately boasting genuine midfield presence and elite skills for his size.

Western Bulldogs General Manager of List and Recruiting, Sam Power, says the Club is excited to secure English over the next two seasons.

“Tim is a really important part of our Club and we see him as a key member of our team in the coming years,” Power said.
