From Fox Sports:
DOLPHINS EYE ANOTHER STORM SUPERSTAR
Wayne Bennett built his maiden Dolphins side around a trio of Melbourne Storm veteran forwards - and he wants to make it four. According to the Daily Telegraph, the Dolphins are chasing Nelson Asofa-Solomona, hoping to reunite him with Felise Kaufisi and Bromwich brothers Kenny and Jesse. The NRL’s 17th team will add Tom Flegler to an already-impressive pack that includes Tom Gilbert in 2024.
200cm Kiwi Asofa-Solomona is off-contract at the end of the season, but is currently sidelined with a high-grace MCL sprain that will rule him out for an anticipated eight more weeks. However, the prop revealed last month that he had previously made a pact with ex-Storm teammate Suliasi Vunivalu that both would make the swap to rugby.
Fijian winger Vunivalu joined the Queensland Reds in the wake of the 2020 NRL Grand Final. But Melbourne boss Matt Trip shut down any talk they would lose the veteran man.
“I have a good relationship with Nelson and we will move heaven and earth to keep him,” Tripp told The Daily Telegraph.

I see the Fox Sports staff writers already have Clubs lining up to sign Jonah. He's played one game and now he's a target apparently. Anyone know when he's signed until ?

Jonah’s going to be super important to the Club if Paps isn’t able to come back to a level that allows him to play first grade (i’m not saying he won’t or that he can’t, but there has to be a question mark over his long-term ability to play again to his previous incredibly high standard).

NRL 360 suggesting that Storm hasn’t closed the door on Noafa returning this season. They love what he brought to the club and team. Another forward is the preferred option, but if unavailable, Noafa will be considered.
