Fremantle forward Isaiah Dudley, defender Oscar McDonald and rookie midfielder Toby Whan have all signed contract extensions.
Dudley's rapid rise at the Dockers has been rewarded, with the forward committing his future to the club until the end of 2029.
The 23-year-old has gone from an SSP pick ahead of 2025 to one of Fremantle's most efficient forward options.
Fremantle Head of Player Personnel David Walls commented on the forward's decision to put pen to paper.
Fremantle has continued its signing spree, locking away small forward Isaiah Dudley until the end of 2029.
An SSP success story.

"Duds has had an outstanding season and hit the trigger for another season, but for him to then pencil in two additional years, shows his commitment to the club,” Walls said.
“This is the first year where he's had a full pre-season after being picked up by the club as an SSP pick in February 2025, and we've seen what that work on and off the track can do for him.
"He has great relationships with Shai Bolton, Michael Frederick and, more broadly, the entire squad, and he's certainly a fan favourite."
The club also announced veteran defender Oscar McDonald and midfielder Toby Whan both signing contract extensions.
McDonald has signed on for another season, keeping him at the Dockers through to the end of 2027.
The 30-year-old played 10 matches this season, his highest tally since 2019, allowing him to showcase his ability to play either forward or back.
He was drafted by Melbourne in the 2014 national draft, where he played 81 games for the Demons. Following the 2020 season, he was delisted and picked up as a preseason supplemental selection by Carlton in 2021. He missed the majority of the 2022 season and was delisted at the end of the year.
McDonald was then picked up by Fremantle, signing a two-year deal as a delisted free agent.
Walls weighed in on the veteran's experience, proving valuable to the club.
“He's got great experience, can go forward or behind the ball, so his versatility as a tall target is a great asset for our team," he said.
"When he's been at WAFL level, he's been a great leader for our key stocks down there and just plays his role week in, week out, which we really value,” he said.
Meanwhile, Whan has committed to another two seasons - until 2028 - as a Category B rookie, after joining the club in the 2025 draft.
Fremantle's Next Generation Academy product has continued to develop through Peel Thunder's Senior side in 2026 and has been used in a different role this season, playing primarily in the midfield, averaging 20.9 disposals over 10 games.
Walls said the left-footer's development in the WAFL has shown significant promise.
“Toby has really blended into our system and has jumped at the opportunity to play senior footy and really hone in and learn from some of our more experienced guys at Peel,” Walls added.
“He always had a booming left boot and was a great user of the ball as an outside player, but we experimented with him at times as more of an inside player, which he really excelled at."
