I'd guess that if Munster isn't prepared for a haircut, he's out the door next year?

Who remembers former Storm prop Alex Chan?

Apparently the Storm are chasing his son Joe, 20, from the Catalans Dragons.

He's a back-rower.

I remember him having a real strong patch of form around 2004(?)

I loved Alex Chan. A massive unit. Remember him wearing an arm guard.

Watching the Dragons play Souths at the moment. Sims is being an absolute liability.

To be fair….the whole St George Illawarra club, the entire football team and their woeful game plan looks like an absolute liability at the moment

The Sims to Storm drums are beating louder. Sound like he's signed for next year but its simply a question of whether he comes this season too.

There was chat we were going after Tariq for the remainder of this season, but with Bird and Sua suffering serious injuries, I doubt there is any chance of the Dragons letting him go early now.

Alledgedly considering the English prop Luke Thomspon from Canterbury
