Stapo for sure............. What a superstar...

 

[Bundy Shark]

Champion is a weak leak in defence, watch the season he played at the Storm.

 

[dylan the villian]

Wasn't he playing for us in reggies with the storm link?

 

[Art Vandelay]

Yeah a couple of games

I live in Newy and just found out that Jeremy Smith has moved into a joint a few houses round the corner from me. Suppose that means I'm now the 2nd toughest bloke in my neighborhood!!!

Don't all the footy players move to Merewether Beach?

Don't sell your self short Tank, although your Mrs doesn't even think your the toughest in your house.

And she's dead right!

Lucky. I'm stuck next door to Wes and Kevin Naiqama..thankfully Wes has gone to Penrith, but they are the two loudest people I've ever encountered.

Reading todays Tele with the atricle on Bellamy & the Storm v Dragons saga, anyway its reported that the storm spend the most of any club on their football per yr which is about 12 mill, Dogs about 11.2 & Dragons 9.5, anyone have any idea how much we spend?

Well it's no wonder they can develop players.

Yeh, tend to agree, nobody disputes how good Bellamy & Hasler are as coaches but they sure have the resources to allow them to do their thing, other coaches like our own must look on with envy.

 

[deano the p]

Yeah it's an un-even playing field in that regards for sure.

An interesting older article about the storm and their funding. Does anyone know what the outcome of this was with the Independent commission?

Considering Flanno had to buy a boxing ring out of his own pocket a couple of years back, I don't think we spend much at all

Yeah - and they don't have to make that $12M in revenue - any shortfall is paid for by News Ltd.

 

[sharks2010]

Be interesting to know how much news limited lose each year on the storm

 

[Born&bred]

Well according to the article posted by Weaponhead it was $8M.

 

[Bundy Shark]

Despite media reports, more so in the local paper in the Sutherland Shire which is called the Leader I have it on good authority that both Bryce & Todd will be playing or available for selection in round 1 v Titans.

Five weeks.
