Key LeasePlan Western Bulldogs midfielder Scott West has today re-signed with the Club, extending his contract until the end of 2008 prior to the expiry of his current contract this season.

Senior Coach Rodney Eade said he was delighted with West’s decision to re-sign with the Bulldogs, noting his importance to the team’s structure.

“The stats show that Scott has been a fantastic contributor to the Bulldogs for an extensive period of time, and he has again demonstrated this season that his ball winning ability is at an absolute elite level throughout the competition.

But even more than that, his work off the field sets a great example to the playing group, so to have one of our leaders commit to the Club at this stage of the season is a positive result,” said Eade.
