News Both Storm Hookers Threaten to Leave if Smith plays on.

[Rockdog]

Not holding my breath but rubbing my hands together.
Everyone knows Brandon Smiths Stance but Harry Grant announced on stage at Tigers presentation that if C Smith stays at storm he wants out.
I think I’d offer 800 or 900k/ year to Grant or 700k to B Smith. Something like that.Very important to Land one of these 2 now IMO.

If he wants out why would he choose us?
Titans, Broncos & Tigers could all be ahead of us?

Pretty clear they both want to be a starting 9. Even if Smith retires it looks like one of them will leave. Both managers would be telling them how much cash is out there for them

Maybe, but it’s worth asking him the question now with a good offer while there is a chance.

Starling and cotter resigned in the last day or 2 also which shortens up the availability list. personally think grant would be a better specislist hooker, so much more naturally .brandon smith seems probably an out and out
14.
Tigers have the cash, so i cant see him going anywhere else if cameron plays on.
If cameron leaves we have no chance of getting either id imagine

Youd think tbaz would be all over this

Titans might struggle with cap space...
Ponies smelly right now. Is Walters a saviour?
Tigers - does he like Madge? Many don’t.
Anything’s possible.
It all hinges on the call C. Smith makes.
I hope he’s selfish and plays on so he and Bellyache leave the Storm at the same time and they lose one or both these fellas. I’m sure we’re watching closely.

True, you never know your luck though.

I wouldn’t risk just targeting one of these guys, it’s time to throw offers at both. Even if hypothetically, they both accepted our offer, then we sign one and make it official and withdraw the other. Unfortunately we aren’t in a position to play games and need to pay overs so just throw together some big offers.

Surely

 

[BULLDVGS]

Id take Cam Smith for a few years and then go for Api. Would be happy would any of the 3 Storm hookers.

 

[surfdog]

Thought the Tigers were still tight for cap next year, the Cleary contracts are still stinking the place up

 

[The DoggFather]

Blank cheque for grant, big money for Smith.

These fellas may get tired and frustrated with waiting for someone else to dictate their futures. And I know in the back of my mind is that Belly is gone after next season. Who will coach the Storm then. Smith?

Assman for CEO!!

Exactly

I'd take the job, couldn't do any worse than the current and previous one.

Won't even draw a salary, would just want a few boxes for the family and friends.

 

[jof]

If Storm win the premiership he'll retire I reckon, if not he'll probably go around one more year at the Storm. I've got a gut feeling Melbourne are going to beat the Panthers in the GF though.

This situation is why the coach is so critical in selling our vision to these prospective players.

We really are in Barrett's hands, so I hope he can convince a few of this next generation of stars that playing for our club will allow them to reach their potential.

Totally agree. Here’s the chance to get the key to our spine.
