 | He's been called many things in his time at Fremantle - Tiny Man with Big Hair, Goal Hungry Dwarf, The Megastar and Oi, Get Your Hands of My Sister but it looks like there's one thing that Paul Medhurst isn't going to be called - an Ex-Docker. Medhurst looks set to sign a new deal with the Dockers and be locked away for another two seasons. |
According to dockerland's own "Monkey" Butler in today's paper, Medhurst is poised to sign a new contract that will see him a Docker until at least 2007 and give him enough time to grow his hair back to it's former glory. Medhurst's manager knocked back an early offer from the club, generating speculation that he would be moved on to another club.
From what we understand, the sticking point was that Medhurst wanted his own private dressing room before games because he was sick of the tirade of Monkey Man jokes that the other players make about him when he takes his shirt off. The club wouldn't budge on the issue but the two parties came to a compromise when Fremantle offered him a swinging tyre and all the bananas he could eat.
