The Perth Football Club is pleased to announce that captain Paul Bevan and midfield pair Chance Bateman and Brett Hodge have all agreed to contract extensions.

Bevan has played 37 games for the Demons since moving from Sydney at the start of 2012.  He had an outstanding 2013 season kicking 55 goals and has now signed on until the end of 2015.

Hodge, who played his junior football at the Thornlie Football Club, made his debut for the Demons in 2010 and has played 67 games for the club.  He had a breakout season this year, playing every game and having career high numbers for disposals, marks, goals and tackles.  He has also committed to the club for another two years.

Bateman, who returned to the Demons this season after 13 successful years in the AFL with Hawthorn, has now committed to playing for the club again in 2014.

The club is looking forward to seeing all three players in action next year.
