i see that purtell signed with penrith today and got me thinking that the storm have been actually quite lucky with players that we tried to sign but turned us down as in the end they actually did us a favour as they wouldnt have been any good for us anyway. there's been:
-purtell - horrible player and would of been huge waste of cap space, plus now he would be no chance with the u20 backs we have
- Adam MacDougall - turned us down so instead we had to play folau from rd 1 2007
- alex glenn - good utility but him rejecting us meant we went after chase stanley who is a better centre and the reason we wanted glenn (to play centre/wing)
- luke lewis - again good utility but we need a back and with the u20s backs would have been no point spending money on him. and while i did like the fact he can play 5-8 well it doenst matter now cos we got finch now and chisolm for the future - so evreyhtings sweet there!
- nate myles - doesnt fit into the storms "no dickheads policy" so glad he turned us down (but i guess under bellamy who knows what he could of done with him - but again wrapped with browmich, sika, kite etc)
um any1 think of any others? both good and bad (i guess fui fui would of been nice lol)
