Storm Signs Newton Until End Of Season

[philstorm]

LOL

Look at all the whingers in this thread moaning about our salary cap.

For all those who may (and probably didn't) listen to Dean Lance talk on SEN radio last night, he said how the Storm have enforced a strict salary cap policy that ensures that they retain the players they want at a specified price - otherwise they take the offer off the table and offer it to younger players.

Great buy, Storm.

Brian Smith wouldnt know Talent if it slapped him the face
Not looking good for Newcastle

:lol:

Talent? Played well for a season and has done nothing since. He's your liability now.

 

[macavity]

The Knights should have someone with the sole aim of breaking every bone in his body when we next play.

someone expendable.

hell, thats half our squad.

I am so angry right now.

 

[Raiding Dazz]

knights are goneeeeeeeeeeee

next they will lose another forward that plays well, and newton to go to the storm is a way of staying in the finals

 

[stuke]

Brian Smith wouldnt know Talent if it slapped him the face
Not looking good for Newcastle, he'll probably let go future reps at the club
Hard to see Newton getting a start at Melbourne anyway

why is it that BS doesn't know talent YET you feel that Newton doesn't have the talent to play for the Storm?

i think you are a little confused...;-)

do storm still have a PL team?

 

[Jono078]

Newton will go awsome for the Storm, unfortunetly so will the other players we lose.

They could have been good in their own backyard, but looks like they need somewhere else to go good.

And no not because Smith is here, been like that for a few years.

How many years since entering the NRL have the Storm not been fined for breech of the cap?????

Good luck with Newton though

 

[Special K]

pretty dog act of him to bail on them now and jump on the storms bandwagon.

 

[stuke]

probably more 'Chris Walker' than 'Jamie Lyon'.

 

[robbo333]

where do storm find the money

 

[Mr Saab]

At the bank

 

[Stranger]

f**k Newton off, merkin.

 

[Balmain Bug]

The Storm have the best playing Roster in the comp and now they buy a top quality Country Rep.

There is something rotten in Melbourne.

 

[Stranger]

Top quality?

 

[Collingwood Storm]

could it be one of those $2 contracts Robbie Kearns signed last year?

 

[kia ora storm]

Wow, some of the blokes down there must be playing for peanuts.

Yep...first class peanuts.

What are you getting at ???...;-)

 

[kia ora storm]

Seems to be a lot of conjecture about cap issues in this thread ???...ever thought of the fact that we bought rejects and turned them into good players without paying a heap for them ???...

Do you honestly think we would have paid big money for the likes of Brett White, Garret Crossman, Ian Donnelly when they first signed with us...???.

 

[gregstar]

good signing.

the storm have a pack of hard workers so this nancy will add some class without getting his hands dirty.

They are in bed with News Limited, so have no fear about the repercussion of breaching the salary cap. They've had to pay "fines" in the past, and according to this weekends Sunday Herald, are under investigation again.....but what do The Storm do...

Go out and buy another rep player !!! LoL

I want their accountant to do my taxes !!!
