Pretty cool that he has history at the club. Love the words from his Dad too.

Prestons welcome to stay as long as he wants.

I knew Ernie Flint and his amazing wife June when I was a young boy - great family friends and a very big reason why I follow the dogs!

I like Presto even more now!!

Nice work, kids a good one.

This is great and if he performs in we’ll happily double his salary for the next contract too. This is how good clubs are run and hopefully our results turn around soon

Canterbury are poised to re-sign rising star Jacob Preston to a new long-term deal.

Preston, an early candidate for Dally M rookie-of-the-year, is expected to sign a new four-deal at Belmore on Friday afternoon.

The new contract starts from 2024.

“Jacob has settled into life at Belmore and the NRL seamlessly,” said Bulldogs CEO Aaron Warburton.

“He’s a pleasure to have around the place. His drive, professionalism and maturity is evident. He’s a true bulldog”.

The association between the player and Bulldogs was destiny given Preston’s great grandfather, Ernest Flint, was a former Canterbury Leagues Club president.

Preston will only be aged 26 when the new deal expires in 2027.

“Jake has found a home at Canterbury,” said Jacob’s father, Mark.

“He is a loyal kid who never wanted to leave. Canterbury gave him his chance and he won’t forgot that.

“I know Jake will stay committed, focused and respectful.

“You can tell that he loves the club by the way he is playing his football.”

Preston’s Bulldogs play Cronulla this Saturday at Accor Stadium.

Canterbury general manager of football, Phil Gould, has already foreshadowed Preston being a future captain of the club.

Respect is a two way street, great news

I know it's only round 8 but I'm.not afraid to say he's my favourite player already.

Hope he stays healthy and continues his great form. He'll only get better as our team gets better and halves learn to use him more effectively.

He's already a crowd favourite and I hope he gets a huge roar when they announce his name at our next home game.

 

[Alan79]

I love a humble player that just works hard. Preston fits that bill and I'm glad we're extending him for a goodly amount of time. Hopefully we can get him a premiership or two.

Future captain

he could be but Mahoney has a long time before he retires.
mahoney plays like a bulldog is young and is our captain. Preston can become a leader without being captain.

Was the only way… best news !!
