Off contract:


Israel Folau (end of 08)
Jeff Lima (end of 08
Sam Tagataese
Clint Newton (England)
Jeremy Smith (Re-signed)

Rumours + other stuff:

Clint Newton has been linked to his former club the Knights, He has also been approached by English clubs, One of those being Hull.

Jeremy Smith has also been linked with Hull, Dragons and Raiders.

The Storm will be holding contract talks with Folau in the off season.

Signings info:

Lucas Miller is a rep player from the Knights who  can play second row or prop. Apprently a big lump of a lad and some Knights fans have big wraps on him.


Joseph Tomane is a 17 year old who represented the Australian schoolboys Rugby Union side.  The signing is still up in the air wth Joseph considering getting out of the deal, he is quoted as saying

"When I signed the deal I thought I was doing the right thing. But I went down to Melbourne for a week in pre-season and I really struggled.

"I've told the Storm I don't want to go and they said 'you signed a contract, you aren't going anywhere else, you're coming down'."

Izzy is contracted for 2008 and I believe Kima is as well, others appear correct

[Super Cronk]

thats what i thought too. I stole most of the off-contracts from other sites so i dont know if its next years off-contracts or what...lol

[Super Cronk]

also apprently Joel thompson has signed for the Raiders...cant find any confirmation tho.

Tomane appeared quite happy with the contract until 'concerned union officals'  poured poison in his ear.

You can add:

Out: Anthony Perkins (Cowboys), Matt Rua (Retired), Joel Thompson (Raiders),
In: Justin O'Neill (already signed by the Storm but agreed to new 2 year contract - one to watch), Sinbad Kali (Central Coast), Aidan Guerra (Norths), 9 Vic players (someone stated that this included Russell Webster, Drury Low, Gareth Widdop, Cameron Micallef, Josh Millgate, Jarrod Stack, Adam Leslie but I have seen these names confirmed).
Unsure: Pale Ale, Ben Matterson, Scott Anderson, Ryan Shortland (not sure where he is going but I'm 99.9% sure they featured him in the visual tribute to those players leaving the Storm after the Parramatta game).
Signed: Folou and Lima are both signed for next year.  I believe that Manu has already signed or will be if not already completed.

Sinbad Kali

[bootsie16]

I don't know much about him to be honest.  He was listed in Rugby League Week as couple of week ago as a Storm signing for next year.  Has anybody seen him play?  The article also listed Louis Fanene (NZ) has being signed by the Storm.
