ST KILDA defender Jason Gram has signed a two-year extension which will see him remain at the club until the end of them 2010 season.
Gram said he wanted to finish his career at the club and believed the Saints were still a legitmate premiership contender.
“I barracked for the club as a kid, so to be here for another two years, and hopefully the rest of my career if it all turns out, it’s all good,” Gram said.
“Our average core age is probably 23 or 24, and I was in Brisbane when they won their premierships, and the core group was all 26 or 27.
“I still think we have plenty of time.
“We don’t want to take our time getting there, and only have a chance for one year, we want to be a force for a few years.”
Gram will face his former club this weekend when the ninth-placed Saints travel to the Gabba to play the eighth-placed Lions on Sunday afternoon in what shapes as being a season-defining match.
“We know we can match it with anybody, and we need to pull it out now,” Gram said.
“We are 4-4 and we don’t want to go behind the eight-ball.
“Brisbane is playing some good footy at the moment and we will go up there and try to play our best footy and come away with the points.”
