Still may be others leave eg from memory Slade Griffin wasn't announced until after GF. But usually there are a cast of thousands in the departing players video.

Anyone think that next year if we could get Cory Norman at the right price that him at 5/8 and Munster at 1 would strengthen the team and rotate the younger blokes through the back bench spot or Cory at 7 and Hughes at 1

Not interested. He's too self centred - not a team player; and that above all is why Bellamy coached teams work. Teamwork and people knowing (and being happy in) their roles..

No thanks RE Corey Norman. Also I don't think he would agree to come to Melbourne and lose his Sydney-social-media-celebrity status

If it's the same Tyrell that played for Souths then I wouldn't like it although he is the typical Storm system player so wouldn't be a bad signing.

Falcons have signed Tyson Smoothy from Redcliffe Dolphins HDC/Brisbane Broncos. A very strong hooker/lock. One to keep an eye on next season.

Melbourne Storm legend and NRL games record holder Cameron Smith has announced his intention to play on in 2019 - an incredible 18th season in the NRL.

Great news... if true. I never quite trust News.Ltd (who seem to be the original source).

Storm tweeting out and posting that article is just bizarre to me.

Storm hadn't posted anything when I put it up this morning.
Storm's version of the article is much less definite than Slothfield's. Theirs says
Cameron Smith is close to finalising a new contract that will see him enter a record 18th season with Melbourne Storm.

It still has a quote in it from the Saturday Telegraph.

I'd prefer the Storm twitter account and website wait on facts when it comes to player signings.
