Cronk to leave Storm in 2018

[Life's Good]

I can see this being one of those disastrous signings for whoever gets him. Let's be honest, he hasn't been elite for the last year or 2 and i dont think he has the ability at this ripe age to make one of the struggling sydney clubs an automatic contender.

Perhaps parra is the best option as they are in that middle ground where a guy like cronk could push them up the ladder.

Really. He just won the Dally M for the 2nd time & Storm are yet to lose a game. SMH.

 

[Nice Beaver]

Tigers or I'll give Manly some chance

hahahahahahahahaha

Gold

 

[oval]

No chance of him going to Manly. He'll go to one of the shit teams ie. any team not Manly.

 

[Johns Magic]

I hope this doesn't stop Chad Townsend getting his $1.2million.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

The only surprise is that he hasn't already decided to retire.There's been speculation him moving to Syd for months.

Must be looking for a final year swansong.

That's not how you spell 'payday'.

 

[Clifferd]

Only clubs that realistically have a chance are Parra, Dogs and Tigers imo

What? His form hasn't dipped for a good 10 years. He won the dally m only last year, and seriously looks like he could play to his peak for another 40 years

So who starts at 7 for the storm next year?

Brodie Croft looks decent

He was joint winner of the Dally M & also won the Golden Boot in 2016.

And would have scored a gf winning try if chambers looked left

 

[moffla]

Luckily he'll go out a winner this year

 

[Barkley]

The real question...is he chasing money or an asterisk free premiership?

Will the NRL encourage him to sign with an NRL operated club?

Neither, it's very likely the missus.

 

[LESStar58]

Premiership winner. Multiple dally ms. Churchill medallist. 300 games and over in which he became a mainstay in the Queensland and kangaroos teams.

Can't begrude him for moving on. Ultimate professional. He will be missed.

Still butthurt after 2012 are we, pal? No asterisk next to that one.

The irony of a Bulldogs fan having a go at Storm cheating the cap is delicuous

This.

Would have preferred he just retired but it is what it is.

Owes the club nothing and wish him all the best for whoever he signs for (except when he plays against us)

 

[Fangs]

Huge news. Has been one of the games best for a decade down at the Storm.

You must have been hungry to go for that bait.

Well I was hoeing in to a Chinese feed while I posted that...

 

[skeepe]

Is that sound I hear Peter Doust furiously scouring Ben Hunt's contract looking for a way out?

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Yeah. Getting out of Melbourne is a bit of a win. Convincing someone to pay you big dollars to do so is a double win.
