Re: Official thread and signing news
Beginning of the end for Brandon at the Storm, disappointing to say the least.

Re: An Asterisk on 2016 Premiership.
We ran two sets of books to retain our players - so wrong. Clearly systematic cheating. The Sharks ended up registering a third party company to organise third party deals for their “underpaid” players. Clearly systematic cheating. You could make a fair argument that the Sharks situation is worse. O...

Re: 2020 Grand Final - Panthers vs Storm
Same thing happened to a Collingwood player - Sam Murray - tested positive after a home and away game against Richmond. It had inadvertently - which was accepted and proven due to the low reading in his sample - entered his system and he received 18 months. If you test positive on game day it is a P...

Re: An Asterisk on 2016 Premiership.
I think the Sharks were deemed compliant with the cap for the whole 2016 season.... which in itself is a farce. The solution to the salaray cap is allow concessions for players brought through your system, then it encourages clubs to develop you even more. Amen, at least we were retaining home grow...

Re: An Asterisk on 2016 Premiership.
The fact that sells it to me that being salary cap compliant on the day is a farce: - Many of the key players they brought over from other clubs had been signed during the non compliant years. I can guarantee one of Ben Barba, James Maloney, Chad Townsend or Michael Ennis who were signed in the year...

Re: Official thread and signing news
Would solve the kicker conundrum too though. Certainly would. If there is no Cam next season I think he would actually be a perfect fit in the halves and gives the side more of what it will need than what Jahrome brings - he is a legit number one option playmaker who can kick. The thing that frustr...

Re: Official thread and signing news
Widdop basically offering to play for free A local Melbourne boy! Sign him up! Especially if Smith returns, he could add to the team in terms of leadership Pole.....Presume you mean if Cameron retires not returns. And it would also probably take Jarome Hughes heading to an opposition team for a big...

Re: Official thread and signing news
In the post-match interview , Munster said Grant is staying with us, putting Harry on the spot . Most disconcertingly , Harry ducked the issue, saying he is not looking past party-time in Byron Bay. It is troubling that there is still such uncertainty. Harry showed last night he is the future - he ...

Re: Official thread and signing news
I love Cam, but I hate the Will he play or not narrative. It’s such a drag on everyone.
Club needs to come out and say we are playing Harry next year regardless of what Cam is doing. I want to hear Harry say I can’t wait to get down to the Storm, not we will see what happens after Byron

Re: Official thread and signing news
When you watch Harry Grant - it’s kind of like a blend of what you love to watch in both Brandon and Cam Smith in one player. He has to be playing 80 mins for the Storm next year. He’s too good not to play 80 for Storm every week. He was just best on in game 3 on playing 56 mins in my opinion but M...

Re: Official thread and signing news
Jahrome is a good player but he's not worth being in the to 10-15 paid players in the comp, which that sort of money would make him. Jury is still very much out on how he'd go being the number 1 playmaker, without a Smith or a Munster to run the show for him. As you would only pay that sort of mone...

Re: Official thread and signing news
Can’t see him staying past 2022 now Ditto - which links to the whispers of the Matt Burton interest. I’m pretty confident if Jahrome gets a huge offer, I don’t think the Storm will stand in his way even for 2021 if it keeps the Smiths and Harry in purple for 2021. Can't agree with this, why would w...
