When me and the wife watch the NRL on TV we always comment on certain ex-Storm players always being a storm player and like to see them play well for their 'other' club. Players such as
Micheal Crocker
Jeremy Smith
Steve Turner
Brett finch (although not in the NRL)
Clint Newton
Matt King
Dallas Johnson.

Some are club legends , other a fleeting 1 or 2 seasons with the storm but still sometimes feel they have a storm shirt on under their new club shirt. Anybody else feel this with other players??

Inglis too.
Jeremy Smith is at his third club now and I still love watching him and seeing him as a Storm boy.
Steve Turner was here for such a long time too along with DJ.

Hate seeing them in different colours but good to see the quality is still there.

Have to say I find GI the hardest to watch followed by Kingy and anyone else that has played for Storm

If I was given the choice to bring one back it would be Kingy. I like him lots. And he speaks so highly of us whenever he is interviewed.

Tolman was the one I really hated to see go as he could have been a 200 game player for us and lead our front row for the next 8-10 years

once they are gone I wish them well (not against us) and then I move on.I am too busy watching Storm that I don`t take any notice of other teams and who plays for them.

While i still hate losing players when it happens i don't dwell on it as long as i used to, it's just part and parcel of the game now and am used to it. We've lost more players than any team in recent years and we're still sitting on top of the ladder so if nothing else it shows that whoever leaves can always be replaced.
