2 year contracts

[1955pie]

Every player who have signed contracts this close season apart from Jim O'Brien have a 2 year contract.

Crowley, McGoldrick, Randall, Jones, Cameron, Rawlinson and Slocombe.
Add in players who still have 2 years to go Palmer, Austin and Langstaff.
That is almost half of the squad.

I always understood that it was considered that ideally players contracts should be split evenly between 1, 2 & 3 years to allow smooth transition from 1 season to the next.
Only Morias has 3 years to run.

I guess 2 years is the obvious length for a new player in terms of risk vs reward (protection).

You can naturally create transition with early contract extensions where appropriate.

In two years, we might be in a totally different situation, could even be in the championship then

Exactly.

Certain players, just like Palmer, will potentially have discussions to extend.

No need to panic, it is what it is.
