Yeah they shouldn't have done it like this. Hopefully they finish with a bang. If it's Lewis and Eisenhuth, I won't be impressed.

Not that it was likely anyway, but looks like ftom the signings this far we wont be making an effort to sihn nofoluma.

If munster stayed, I'm assuming the wingers would be Coates and Meaney. Signed backups would then be jennings, dean, anderson, etc. Cant really put more cash into the winger position.

Interested to see who the last 2 signings are.

I think Eisenhuth will be one of them and fair chance Lewis is the other.

Surely the only saving grace would be Nofa or Slater as assistant coach

Unless the last player is a big name on a long term deal then why so much build up? A simple press release would have been enough for one year deals for players who aren't in the best 17 and have played less than 50 Storm games combined.
