Missed our chance when we wouldn't cough up the so called "overs" this year

It’s been said here perfectly.
I’d love Grant, but we’ve missed that boat.
The only way is to ask his manager how likely is a 1.1 mil offer of getting f him and if there’s no positive answer then move on or we’ll miss others.
We need to be looking at the likes of
McInnes, Clarke, Smith and co.
Grant is probably pie in the sky now.
That said, watch him end up at Roosters in the future....

Too bad he's only going to get 10 months of it (according to Bellamy).

Go Dogs
10 months at the Storm before jumping in Bellamy's suitcase and heading to Brisbane.. (Broncs or 2nd Brissy team)

I think you can listen to it through the SEN app
I found a link if anyone wanted to listen:
"The Game Plan with Shane Flanagan" I'd assume. *around the 7 minute mark.

It's probably just one throw away line so probably not worth listening...

I really do NOT understand why we don't/didn't throw 800k? 1M at Harry grant?

He's a world class 9. Please can someone explain to me why the club didn't go after him harder? I know back before he played a first grade game we offered him a 3yr deal worth 1M.

We haven't had a hooker since Ennis, who we gave away for Liecha. I'll stop there before I break my keyboard or my LED monitor.

Harry Grant is the next long term hooker for QLD, the best hooker the NRL has seen since Smith.

Some things i'll never understand....

Without a decent hooker, we're just pissing in the wind next year.

He is a franchise player you can build around. The storm aren’t stupid enough to let it go. After last night, I would spend 1mil a season for him. He is going to be that good. I hope C. Smith decides to be selfish and play on for another season to push him out.

Then we shall try try and try again. Until we get our man. Even if we front load his contract.

He's the best prospect since Cook

There is no way Melbourne paid anywhere near or more than 500k, otherwise he would not of been loaned out to the Tigers

So you’re saying Melbourne dropped half a Mil on a Qld Cup player and then loaned him out to the Tigers for a year?

Yh, why not? They get to keep him and Tigers cover his wage for the year giving them cap space. Makes sense.
