The Storm Recruitment Manager Peter O'Sullivan has informed the Club will be joining the Sydney Roosters in a similar role for the 2008 season.

Bloody Roosters  :angryfire: :angryfire:

I hope we can find somebody just as good to replace him but unfortunatly that may be difficult.  :icon_frown: :icon_frown: :icon_frown:

Faaaaarrrrrrkkkkkkk!!  Didn't see that one coming  :icon_frown:

Hopefully Storm will find someone who is equally good at spotting that something special that others don't seem to see or see too late.

Holy sheeeeeeeeeet!!! Now THAT'S a shock.

Those bloody Bondi arse-wipes! Fair dinkum...they think they can buy a lima lima lima duck premiership (like Manly) instead of EARNING one :roll:

Lets just think of all the talent Peter O'Sullivan has brought to this club, before we call him a sell-out etc.
He has got us a lot of awesome future superstars

$ overkill & a contract from the plucked chooks  :roll:
Surprised that Beetson is staying on in a 'development' role  :?

BTW..................Is O'Sullivan still involved with any of our players in a 'player manager' capacity ?

This is a very bad result.  Does this mean we will now see the next Slater, GI, Smith, etc go to the Roosters??  We'd better have a good replacement

Thats is a massive blow. IMO He is one of the three people that have the most influence on the clubs future (along with Waldron and Bellyache).
I may take a few years to hit but I hope we don't see the young talent drying up as the last of his picks progress through the ranks and there is no one behind them.
We owe him heaps, our team is full of diamonds that he recognised in the rough and Bellyache polished.

hey guys just a quick note, how and who let peter o'sullivan(storm recruitment manager) go, he was as important to the storm as cam smith or craig bellamy.  i believe in 2 to 4 years time we will see how important he was to making the storm who they are, if it wasnt for him there would be no billy slater folau or inglis.

there is a massive hole to fill, who will it be. the roosters got aubusson now they have o'sullivan.

go the storm

hey guys didnt see this thread till just now and started another sorry.

i cant believe this, i wasnt too worried about the salary cap and rugby union purely because we the storm had the best recruitment guy in the game, now i am worried about us for future years. lets hope we can get someone half as good as peter.

go the storm
