    Yet, Pezet is still trying to get a deal done to stay at the Storm... He played 10 NRL games this year for the Storm and will play NRL again next year. The Storm are smart enough to know the value of depth in their top 30, and Pezet is in their plans beyond 2025.

    The balls in Melbourne's court for 25. Doesn't need any more explanation, other than 'you're contracted to us and we expect you to honour your contract'. Jumping the gun though.... still have him re-signing.

    Why sign with us for 2026 when he can stay at the Storm and get a 'lend' deal ... by 2027 they're likely to have him playing NRL for them. Same as they did with Harry Grant.

    They won't give him an early release. Why would they? The good clubs play the ball not the man.

    Storm have played that well... now they just tell him he's not getting an early release for 2025, to encourage him to re-sign another couple of years.

    Bulldog's are the new Knght's... They're in the box seat to sign everyone. Whenever there's talk about a club looking at "everyone" it's a good indicator player managers are leaking rumours to push the $$$'s up.

    Watched him in his last NSW cup game. He has a massive future and is part of the reason I'm not concerned if Leo takes off.

    What do you want 'front office' to do differently? They decided on what they thought Dom's value was and presented him a very good offer. They are working on the same with KPP (and Thompson)... all they can do is put forward the best deal possible. No use spending overs on a player that's not...

    He's bigger than Glen. I think BJ is too tall to be labled a 'nugget'. He's very broad across the shoulders, and strong as a bull. Glad he's not going anywhere. He's starting to fulfil his potential.

    We have a heap of middles. Crazy not to move 2 or 3 of the top 30 guys on... there's a couple of really good young fella's that aren't far away from making their mark on the NRL. Don't block their path.

    O'Brien and Arthur are best mates. Would make sense he heads up the M1 with his young bloke.
