The GWS Giants look set to offer star midfielder Josh Kelly a deal that could tie him to the club for the next decade.
According to a report from The Age, GWS have made a 10-year commitment to Kelly.
Kelly signed a two-year contract extension this year, which sees him tied to the club until the end of 2021.

However, Kelly has an eight-year option on top of that, which he can take up by a certain date in 2021.
That would see the 24-year-old stay with the Giants until the end of 2029.
It's a deal worth close to $1 million per season and would exceed the length of Lance Franklin's nine-year, $10m deal with the Swans, signed at the end of 2013.
However, if Kelly does not take up the eight-year option, he will be a restricted free agent in the course of 2021.
Kelly recently spoke to SEN about his decision to re-sign with the Giants, instead of moving back to Victoria.
Kelly rejected a nine-year, $10 million offer from North Melbourne.
“I think above all it’s a great club to be at,” Kelly said.
“We’ve got a great playing group, a great coaching staff, admin and just the whole club, in general, is a really good place to be at.
“That’s really special and I think you’ve got to be inside the four walls of the footy club to really appreciate that and know what’s going on with the culture and the relationships that you build.
“I also think we’re right in a place where we can have some success.
"The last few seasons have only made us mature as a group and developed us to a stage where hopefully we can push for a premiership this year and the years going forward."
“We’ve got a great playing group, a great coaching staff, admin and just the whole club in general is a really good place to be at.
Kelly is currently on the sidelines recovering from a calf injury.
He's expected back against the Hawks next week but will miss this weekend's clash with the Sydney Swans.
