Its essentially a 4-year extension as his current contract already has 1yr to run after this season but this one supercedes his original contract, hence it being a 5-yr deal.
He's now contracted upto end of 2016 season.

Doesn't that make it a 3 yr extension to his old contract?

| Quote: M@islebugs "Great news. Hopefully something similar is in the pipeline for Tom Burgess. Bateman's contracted to 2014 so I can't see them revisiting that so soon. Announcements on Elima, Crookes, Addy would also be excellent.
Right now I'd also resign Hargreaves, Walker, Pryce and I'd like to see the club give Donno another year to show real support for the kid. I think that would send a positive message to the other lads.
Then there's the Nas v Sammut problem. I'd keep both if at all possible but if there's no space I'm not sure who i'd let go.'" agree completely. Nas v Sammut a thorny one, but hopefully if we keep these recent performances and results going there may be other young Fed players with potential, like Gale and Kear, that want to join us, or an u20s player makes a great leap forward (eg Ball)

| It's really not hard to understand.
The new contract OVERWRITES the old one. So forget about his current deal.
1 = 2012 (this season)
2 = 2013
3 = 2014
4 = 2015
5 = 2016 (runs out at the end of that season)
Therefore it's for 5 seasons / years

The thing i'm struggling with is that the Bulls have said 5year contract and Whitehead is saying 4years.
Paul has echo'd what i originally thought so i'm not losing my marbles after all!!!

Yep, Whitehead obviously isn't including 2012 when he refers to it on Twitter.

| Some very positive news coming out of Odsal lately regarding your youth policy
This is the best way back to the big time for the Bulls by signing up all of your talented juniors on long term deals
I look forward to our derby games that once again attract 20,000 plus crowds and at both venues, as a healthy rivalrly works very well for both clubs

that was my initial assumption too. But after thinking about it presumably his new deal is an improved one. if it kicked in immediately how would we accomodate it under the salary cap which we are supposed to be right upto?.
Pretty certain they brought in rules re back-weighted contracts after wigan fiasco. while you can have a contract that rises in stage think as far as salary cap is concerned they now add up total value of contract and divide it by number of years its for and apply that figure for salary cap each year whether players receiving the money yet or not.
Could we maybe have voided last year of whiteheads old deal (2013 season) and given him a new 4 year contract which starts when his current one now expires (end of 2012 season). he gets improved terms but not til end of season so we can budget for accomodating the raise in the following years salary caps.

Not 100% on his current situation but I'll add in Tom Olbison as well.

According to silsdenbull's squad page he's contracted until 2014, so he's a lower priority. Nobody had mentioned the person I think most needs signing up for 2013 yet...

Well some decision will have to be made before [itoo[/i long, and it may well be that talks are on-going, though my impression was that there were very mixed views - amongst fans at least, about that. For my money Mick is doing ok in trying circumstances, and if we though he was the answer before last season then there's no reason to believe that things have changed, so yes, get him signed.
