Figures are somewhere around the $400k mark ($1.6 Mill over 3 maybe 4 seasons). IMO, he is well worth this and could command more elsewhere. If he procrastinates on this, I hope Brisbane offer whatever they can...basically everything Lockyer is on. What I really wnat to discuss, is why would he want to re sign there? Maybe he feels he owes the club or wants to remain a one club man? However, the club didn't exactly raise him...they basically stole him. He has always expressed a desire to return to SEQLD. In QLD he would be endorsed on everything, he would be the next Lockyer in Brisbane no doubt. The Storm are losing much talent over the next few years, apart from Cronk, they havn't re signed anyone else of importance. As of 2009, the Storm machine dissolves; Kaufusi, Crocker, J. Smith and Falou are gone. In 2010; Hoffman , Inglis, Slater are off contract. 2011 sees Lima, Manu, Johnson and Blair finish. The Storm will dissolve as the mighty salary cap purges them of the talent they now ooze....so why would Cam Smith choose to resign for 4 years? And if he does stay, especially for that long, watch out NRL, because most of that talent will choose to stay as well IMO. [/QUOTE]
