I saw it coming. His form slumped considerably this season and he must have known it was time to hang them up. For that my respect for Norrie grows even more. Thanks for the memories Noz!

Sad to see a dedicated Storm player bow out due to injury but I agree with Inglis#3, the timing seems right.

The write up on the Storm website is heartwarming. I didn't realise he had only missed 6 games since debuting. Top stuff.

Thanks for your efforts Noz!

Farewell to a storm champion. I just hope humpty dumpty wasn't pushed.

Noz was great for the Storm in his first three seasons. His form dropped off a bit in the last couple of years.

Great effort by Noz to play twice as many games with Storm as he had combined with Sharks, Dragons and Panthers. Especially when it looked like his career was over and he was set to join Wagga Kangaroos as playing coach.

Thanks and good luck Noz.

the perfect example of how the storm system resurrected the career of a player who thought he was past it. Onya Noz
