I know its a total shock but is anyone actually seriously thinking of leaving when the dust settles

I am shatterred but i will be there Sunday, players deserve the support and the club will always be part of my life as long, as we are still around.

If the players arent involved they should stick togather and not let this be a great teams undoing.

I would like to hear more info in the ensuing days.
I won't be going on Sunday, but at the same time I will support the club as long as there's air in their lungs.
It's like family. If one of my family members murdered someone, I'd be digusted and ashamed, but I'd still love them.

spoke to my 14 year old daughter tonight (lives with her mum).

she has really taken to the Storm over the last 3 years.

Bought her 1st jersey this year.

I was crying when she told me that she still wants to go to the games because League is great fun to watch and she loves the players.

how could those bastards do this to us adults...and more importantly to the kids like my daughter.  :x

I think it more a question of which players are going to stay.  After the SOO series they have know reason to play and risk getting injured.  They have nothing to show for the last five years and playing for pride and the CLUB only goes so far.  A lot of them will move on (a couple have to anyway to get under the salary cap).

The players now have to be paid the amount the NRL think the were being paid, not the amount in the serect book.  Also, if Craig goes how many will go with him.

I will be there Sunday to hold the banner and support the TEAM!!
The players need our support now more than ever.  Some may be involved in this debacle but until we know for sure I'm standing by all of the players in my team.
Very gutted right now but life will go on and hopefully so will Storm after a colonic irrigation to remove the waste at the club.

We will be there on sunday and stay as members at this point in time. I have great faith in Bellyache and the boys and realise the ramifications that this will have in retaining some of our squad. We love rugby league and we have done a lot with the Storm over the years (early years ) so it is hard to forget the good times.The last 5 years we have followed the Team but were very dissapointed with the club.I feel for the Banner crew and as i know most of them the "STORM FAMILY" will rally together and pull through this.

Amen Tigger. As gutting as this is i'll be there with bells on. The boys need us more than anything right now and they deserve our support regardless of if we get the points or not.

I was there before the salary cap rorts and I will be there after! Why should I do otherwise?

As much as the admin (from CEO down) believes otherwise this club always was and always will be:

The supporters
The players
The football team (ie coach, trainers, etc)

I'll be there too.  The players deserve or support.  I really feel for them (if they were unaware of the circumstances).  Such a hollow feeling

What about the NSW Cup side & the Under 20's ?
How does this affect them ?
