According to The Daily Telegraph, the Melbourne club are worried the cashed-up Canterbury Bankstown club could put in a big play for the 27-year-old, with head of football Phil Gould often able to get his man.
Are they for real. Cashed up ?????????????? They can't even register the players they have already signed.

Cashed up , straight from The Roosters playbook. Get ya mates in the media to keep talking about how cashed up you are and then release 5 fringe first graders on minimum wage. Stand by for the story about how smart Gus is at managing the salary cap .
I believe that contract is for 2024.
He is still signed with the Storm until the end of the 2023 season.
The dogs have a lot of players off contract at the end of 2023 including Josh Jackson and Luke Thompson who are on a combined 1.4 million per season.
They can definitely afford Munster from 2024 onwards.
Was about to write this but looked it up before commenting, yeah 2024 would be ok as they will have money. Not great depth at all but have money.
Keep in mind, Kikau & Mahoney which they haven't registered because they are waiting to move players on. They still have to have 30 players in the top squad so can't just get rid of a heap of players to bring one in. They have Burton, Pangai Jr & JAC on good coin along with the others they signed for this season like Naden who isn't on minimum wage. Flanno Junior on $550k. They also have their hand up for Haas.

If Munster is sick of finals and tired of playing for QLD he should definitely go there.
Well he loves bags , so the local women's attire should get him a bit toey.
8 ball?
I'd like to see Munster play for a shit team and see how he goes. He gets heaps of time to do what he wants at the storm - would be good to see him with limited options to see if he truly is a great player.
Can't see this happening, Gus leaking a rumour to take heat off himself and the club.
Pretty obvious Gus it trying to take some pressure and talk off the salary cap, trying to double bluff eveyones to make out they still have cap space.
