STORM ENFORCER LINKED TO BULLDOGS SWITCH
Melbourne Storm prop Nelson Asofa-Solomona has recently been connected with a potential move to the Canterbury Bulldogs.
The New Zealand born forward has impressed onlookers with a shift to the edge towards the latter stages of the 2022 season.
While the 26-year-old was previously linked with a code-swap to rugby union due to his stance on vaccinations, Asofa-Solomona will be off-contract following the end of the 2023 season.
According to
The Daily Telegraph the Storm were reportedly unaware of any rival offers being thrown at the Kiwis prop amid the speculation the Bulldogs have him on their radar.

The 26-year-old isn’t the only player on the club’s watch list as the Bulldogs have reportedly been eager to secure the services of Eels half Mitchell Moses and Penrith’s Stephen Crichton.
Asofa-Solomona will be a key member of the Storm’s forward pack heading into 2023 after the club farewelled Felise Kaufusi, Jesse Bromwich, Kenneath Bromwich and Brandon Smith.
Asofa-Solomona has scored 27 tries in 164 games for the Storm since his debut back in 2015 and has scored two tries in 12 Tests for New Zealand.
