David Stagg Contract Extension
Friday, 19 February 2010

Workhorse back-rower David Stagg has re-signed with the Bulldogs, extending his tenure through to the end of the 2012 season.

Stagg, 26, joined the Bulldogs at the start of last season and was a standout player in a standout year for the Club earning the highly coveted Bulldogs Player of the Year award.

“He’s got everything I’m looking for as a coach: he’s an 80 minute player and he never lets you down,” said coach Kevin Moore.

“I’m thrilled that we’ve been able to keep David on board. He’s a tremendous leader and one of the most respected players in our team.”

After making the difficult decision to leave family and friends in Brisbane Stagg says he now feels like he is at home with the Bulldogs.

“From a Club point of view, moving down here was a huge thing for my family but we’re fitting in really well and wish to extend that,” Stagg said.

“From a football sense I’ve been able to play the way I want to play and hopefully can continue to do that over the next few years, I’m looking forward to continuing our relationship with the Club.”

David and his wife Temika are expecting their second child next month. He is also continuing his studies, having completed a diploma in Civil Engineering he has recently enrolled in a construction course through TAFE.

Great news. Really like him as a player. He's like an upgraded version of Tony Grimaldi.

very underated player who has been unlucky in the past years been overlooked for state of origin. with dallas gone i think staggs will finally make the qld jersey his own(imo staggs should of been chosen over dallas but if it aint broken dont fix it so i see why dallas kept his spot over staggs and the fact that he has a great combination with the other storm players in the qld squad)

That's a load of bull ^

First of all, we were gunning for Mortimer more than Mateo. Second of all, Stagg was going to stay no matter what. He is the heart of our back row and he wasn't ever going any where at the end of this year. He was in discussions last year for a contract extension. And lastly, Mateo hasn't re-signed with the eels just yet so that blows your theory out of the water.
