only in RL would we find a way to ensure the games top player couldn't get a contract!

I presume he is still under contract at Melbourne, they will be sweating now and hoping RU comes in and steals him away no doubt.

there a story linking him to afl

molly meldrum is a fan of storm and st kilda so they are interested

hell play at souths, theyll just have to lose a player. the telegraph said this was their plan b last week

all clubs have to play by the rules

I'd lose Asotasi, he's been expensive hand luggage for a couple of seasons.

I doubt he will play AFL, not the type of player who could adjust I wouldn't think and they have their pin up boys for the two new teams.

www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/ ... 5973218899 according to this it's Champion, Crocker and Lowe that they are trying to get rid of. I'd keep Ben Lowe, he had a good year last year and Champion isn't a bad centre. I'd definately be trying to get rid of Crocker first, he's hardly played since joining them and there strong in the forwards without him.

It'd be Crocker out of those three who'd be the preferred player to let go.

getting sick of this,one minute he is going to souths next minute he isn't.its becumming a JOKE

Come on manly4ever,this is RL we are talking about.

did you see the hoops they expect potential investors in the game to jump through? No wonder NRl players earn half what stars in other codes can earn!

Some good news for once. I thought i'd put it here rather than doing another thread but ex Knights forward Chris Houston has had all charges dropped in court and is free to sign with an NRL club. I like Houston and thought the Knights missed him last season, would of been in the NSW team IMO aswell but for these charges which have cost him a year of NRL so it's good to see him back. The Knights have made a 3 year offer but the Cowboys have also come in for him. I think he'll stay at the Knights but the Cowboys could certainly do with him as there light in the forwards. Neil Henry has also said the Cowboys have room to sign another 2 players for 2011, a prop and a utility they are after although i wouldn't be surprised to see a couple of players from Souths end up going there so they can get the Inglis deal done. Whatever they do it needs to be sorted out pretty quick as he wont hang about much longer.

Finally, Inglis signs for Souths on a 3 year deal and Beau Champion has gone to Melbourne on a 3 year deal. I thnik Champion will do well at Melbourne, i'm surprised they wanted him after Dane Neilsen and Justin O'Neil went well for them last year, i thought they'd be the centres this year, also surprised they had enough money to get Champion but he's only 23 and everyone that plays for the Storm seems to end up being rep players so dont be surprised if he's the NSW centre next year.
Also look forward to seeing young Dylan Farrell playing in the centres with Inglis next year, he looked a very promising player in the couple of games he played. Souths should be definate top 4 contenders next year, they've managed to keep all there forwards although i think the Storm will still finish higher than them.

Is Jamie Simpson any good?

Fringe first grader.

Great deal for Storm! I reckon they'll play Neilsen on the wing now. It is quite an exciting young backline they have put together for not much money.
