The Storm need to release enough players so they get under the cap, but what people might be forgetting is they also need to replace those players with other players to make up their 25 man playing roster. Given that the minimum contract in the NRL is $55,000, they're probably going to have to release closer to $1 million worth of talent, depending on which players they want to keep. They can either cut two of their marquees and replace them with a couple of juniors, or they can cull a whole heap of lesser players and replace them with juniors. I reckon they'll probably take the first option, culling one or two of their marquees so they can keep the majority of their playing roster intact.

Hahaha!

Posting from my iPhone too as my comp at home just started to sh*t itself as I try to download some bullsh*t software I need for a uni assignment.

We both raise an interesting point though. I just raise it quicker. Haha.

But we can't offer anything to a player unless the Storm release them first?

I just can't see them releasing any of Cronk, Smith, Inglis or Slater.
But Adsy! Our management is incompetent because we haven't signed some of them already!

Well are sarcastic as that was you're actuay partly right for a change alex. Our management is completely incompetent as is our "coach", but that isn't the reason.

Well going by the logic of some of this forum Reynoldson was a good player and one of the Storms best backrowers in 2004 so he'd be a good signing.

I don't give a sh*t if any of the players won the Golden boot in 2009 - they are useless in 2010!

I hear Clint is looking to win a premiership now that his last one was stolen from him.
