Still trying to work out how this is a good deal for Port?
Like others have said, locked in a bloke who genuinely looks like he could be a top 5 footballer in the comp.
Locked him in at a price that 'could' be unders in 5 years' time if he reaches his potential.
Port can now build the squad around him.
Rozee can pretty much guarantee he finishes his career earning approx. 10 million, knowing that so far in advance should mean he can set himself up well in the future.
Obviously, its a lot of 'what if's' and based on potential, but at least Port knows this bloke, they know how he trains, his personality, his work rate etc etc. If ever there was a need for a really long-term contract i think this is one of those situations.
Like others have said I'm sure if they could have Port would have locked Butters into a longer contract as well.

He limped to the end.
But was worth every cent.

Dusty ticking along quiet nicely too with a year to run on his long term deal.

If North offered/signed Sheezel 8 years you’d be rapt.
