[sante]

So many posters have named players contracted for 2009...

Cogs just re-signed for 2 years. Raines and White are contracted for 2009 too.

Sante, I put Cogs based on the notion that he will be forced into retirement.
White two years? Sheesh! You're kidding?

Well, lets hope Cogs stays injury free. I'm pretty sure White got a 3 yr contract at the end of 2006? Hughes is contracted for 2009 too IIRC.
