Re: Congratulations Adam Blair

Lulz at the end of the article too," NZRL's 2009 Young Player of the Year went to Taranaki back rower Jesse Parete, who was signed late last year by Melbourne when he was 16". WTF are the Warriors doing over there. According to the article below the Warriors chased him but he chose the St...

Re: Official WCC Squad

I'm pretty sure that Byran Norrie is signed to NSW Cup with the view that he could be moved up like Ryan Tandy and Hep Cahill last year.  Nothing lost by this. Rory Kostijasyn is a surprise inclusion.  Must have really impressed given he is not in the top flight squad and the opportunity to take ano...

Re: Squad for first trial.

I make it 12 from NRL squad, 3 under 20's and 6 NSW Cup players (with Bryan Norrie).   Based on this you would think that Jess Bromwich, Justin O'Neill, Dane Chisholm and Kevin Proctor are already confirmed for London along with regulars Finch, Hinchcliffe, Hoffman, Lima, Laurie, Neilson and Tolman....

Fromt the Sydney Telegraph 23.12.09 - BRONX Goodwin is poised to wear the jumper his father "Lord" Ted Goodwin made famous, with the Dragons snaring the former Shark and Raider for season 2010. Wayne Bennett signed the outside back to a deal last week that will make him the first Goodwin t...

Re: Willie Mason to Storm?

Maybe a little respect for Mr Bellamy's decision making people....remember he isn't prone to making rash, poor, illogical, damaging and just plain dumb decisions for the Storm. If he and the other coaching staff see something of value in Mason, then I am more than happy to trust their judgement on ...

Re: OFFICIAL 30 MAN SQUAD FOR 2010

Storm share a lot of the facialties including the gym at different times.  A number of the Storm players are often in their lifting weights.  Have seen Dane in their lifting with some of the other young guys.  I don't get to watch them very often out on the track so you might be right that he is no...

Re: Greg Inglis arrested over assault

And on this issue. It really saddens me to see so many people judge him before he had a chance to say anything. I'd expect it from the media, but it cuts me deep to read so many negative posts from people who call themselves, supporters. God Bless You Greg. I also felt a little disheartened to read...

Re: OFFICIAL 30 MAN SQUAD FOR 2010

Dane is definately signed with the Storm and has commenced training.  Last year a couple of players got left off the website listing and we went into a panic then as well.  Just an attention to detail case by admin.

Re: Broncos sign Scott Anderson

Suffered greatly from the publicity around his back-ended contract that saw people's expectations raise considerably on the basis he was a $250K a year player.  In reality was far from paid this over the 4 years but hey.  Has struggled to get his body right before last year but when he got his chanc...

Re: Signings (rest of 08-09)

Matt Duffie would also have to be in consideration if he keeps developing at the rate he has this year.  I would rate him in front of Isa and Utala.  Sam Joe is also in the mix.  Will be interesting to see who of the young guys jumps up.

Re: Cooper Cronk, Ryan Hoffman and Brett White

Congrats to all.  Great for the players but this number of representative players puts enormous pressure on the salary cap.  Will be interesting to see whether the Storm management have allowed enough extra dollars in the planning for this amount of players.  I really believe there should be an add...
