Cam will sign on until the end of 2016 I reckon (that's when Coops' contract ends) along with Billy (who at the end of 2015 is off contract and will probably sign a one year extension which will take him to 2016). That will take Billy and Cam to 33 and Coops to 32 (his birthday is in December). I reckon all three of them will retire together in what will be the tenth anniversary of the start of the club's success and also since they all started playing in their respective positions together (as Coops started playing halfback in 2006). Also, Bellyache also comes off contract in 2016 and will probably retire with them.

I also forgot to mention Hinchy, he also comes off contract in 2016. He'll be almost 32 then and could possibly retire along with Bellyache, Cam, Billy and Coops.

I agree, i don't think there's much chance he'll play elsewhere.

I'm not so optimistic. I think he'll go but where to? Broncos have McCullough. Titans likely but how they'd fit him under the cap with the practicality all representative pack is beyond me.

Yeah I sort of realised that, but after reading Titans mentioned above and then remembering the likes of DJ and others leaving when we thought they never would, I got a bit emotional. I mean, I don't know what I'd do if my man-crush Smithy was ever to leave us.mystormboys wrote:Was meant in humourGo Storm wrote:The whole point is that their extended family's are in Brisbane, so if he didn't move to Brisbane what would be the point in moving

Smith is the Melbourne Storm. For all the glitz and Glamour of Slater and sometimes Cronk's games, it is Smith that drives us to success. Smart footballing brain doesn't do him justice. He is brilliant. And worth every cent of whatever ridiculous price tag he ends up getting.
There is zero chance we will let him go. Frank and co wouldn't allow it. He is too important.
