I don't think we should be renewing his contract until midway through next year. Maybe start of the season, after pre-season, at the very soonest.
It would imprudent risk management on our part to immediately extend a guy that's just come back from 12 months out, with 2 years left on his contract without seeing how he performs for a period of time.
I suppose from the perspective of salary, we'd probably in quite a strong position right now.
