As far as the records go Melbourne were stripped of those premierships due to blatant salary cap rorting. They only "won" those premerierships as they had a massive & unfair advantage over the rest of the teams. What you think is irrelevant.
Seeing as you have such an idepth knowledge of what our team requires maybe you should go to there next training session & share your pearls of wisdom with the coach & the team.
What a load of rubbish you have come up with there sherlock! You can see that i have gone to a bit of trouble to write this thread as i care so much about our great club and all you can contribute is telling me to go to their training to give them my pearls of wisdom crap. Very original stuff champ. Is that all you can contribute? Why do you waste your and everyone else's time?
Here is a "-:NEWSFLASH SPOILER ALERT FOR YOU AND YOUR KIND DUDE:-"
Do you honestly think that the Storm are the only premiership winning side to have gone over the cap??? You are seriously deluded if you do!! For example just take a look on paper at the Brisbane Bronco premiership winning sides. Sorry to burst your little bubble but most clubs who can afford it "bend" the salary cap rules!!
Just a little example, take this as fact. I was told from the horses mouth of someone heavily involved in the Isaac Luke contract negotiations with $ouff$ that Isaac Luke left his manager during negotiating his last contract as his manager at the time refused to take money under the table from $ouff$. It was for memory either an extra $100,000 or $150,000 a season under the table. Isaac decided to sack his manager so that he could accept that extra money under the table. That is just 1 example, you can only imagine what $ouff$ and plenty of other clubs get up to! Also $ouff$ get away with plenty when it comes to the Burgess boys!!
I admire how you and others are loyal towards Brian, but you have to question at what point loyalty becomes an impediment. Craig Bellamy has a proven track record, 4 grand finals in a row with 2 premierships, most likely would have made it 5 in a row if the Storm weren't stripped of all their points in 2010, and came within a whisker of making the grandfinal last year. For Bellamy's Storm side to take out last years minor premiership was an outstanding effort considering what they had been through!! Along with Bellamy's efforts of having the Storm take out the 2006, 2007, 2008 minor premierships and he is well and truly on his way to winning this years minor premiership and most likely win the whole thing. Bellamy can attract the very best players to the club, I doubt Brian has that same attraction for players. Bellamy has the ability to reinvent older experienced players and turn an average player into a star. I have never heard anything bad about Bellamy's coaching abilities in rugby league circles, only ever praise! Do you ever hear praise for Brian Smith's coaching??? The best i hear for him from some league circles is that he is good at rebuilding clubs. Imo he didn't do a fabulous job with the Knights and in the end they could not wait for him to go. We had an ordinary, some might even say $hithouse season last year, and imo we will not be making the 8 again this year. But all i ever hear is excuse after excuse after excuse for every loss we have. I know that i for one, and i am sure there are plenty more who feel the same as i are sick and tired of excuses. We want consistent success!! Bellamy is the solution!!
The Storm were punished for their own success by having their 2 premierships taken away. Bellamy was not given established rep stars, he turned young players like Inglis, Folau, Smith, Cronk and Slater into rep stars. This is what i want him to do with our young players for which i don't believe Brian is capable of. They are NOT the only premiership winning side to have gone over the cap. They were only caught out because a disgruntled employee blew the whistle.
I truly believe that we can get Bellamy to come to us because of the challenge and the money. Money talks. Imo a fresh challenge could be very appealing. Who would have thought Bennett would have left the broncos? Who would have thought that Hasler would leave Manly. At the Roosters Bellamy will be given a much better balanced side with a plethora of exciting young talent to work with. I have no doubt he would be a tremendous success with us! Imo he is THE best man for the job.
The year 2013 marks the beginning of the Roosters next 'decade of excellence', and it will prove to be more successful than the last!

What you were told and what is true are two different things.
Until someone else gets caught blatantly cheating the cap everyone is innocent atm.
Don't get on here pretending you know everything when all you are doing is guessing that other clubs are over the cap.
I don't care what your mates sister's boyfriends uncle told you, until you have some proof get off that high horse and stop pretending you know any of the clubs financial situations.
It's been proven that Melbourne cheated.
That's all there is to it!

Greedy just try getting off your high and mighty pedestal and read the following very very carefully so that it might sink in a little bit for you!
Now what part of "I was told from the horses mouth of someone heavily involved in the Isaac Luke contract negotiations" do you not understand???????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????? Not your mates sister's boyfriends uncle told me BULL$HIT that your crapping on about champ!!
I don't want to say exactly who it was but let me narrow it down for you dude, it was one of the following people;
Russell Crowe, His former Manager who Isaac sacked Gavin Orr, Shane Richardson, Isaac Luke, John Lang. I personally know one of these people so yes, they are in the know and happen to tell "ME" things!!! Does that get your approval??????????????? Cause i am sweating bullets, simply dying to get your chookpen royal highness approval.
So when taking into perspective that Isaac Luke is just 1 player at 1 club getting away with accepting money off the cap, i find it very easy to believe that he would not be the only person or the only club who does this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So yes, the Storm aren't as bad as you think when you have to realize that they are not the only team who cheats the cap. I also want to add, since the Storm have been 100% legit last year, just look at what they are achieving. Who is to say that they would not have won a premiership sometime between 2007-2010, as they have not skipped a beat with their constant success!!!
So here is a question for those who are anti Craig Bellamy coaching us, with taking into consideration the FACTS of what i have brought to light, please tell me why you don't want Bellamy???????????????????? Cause unless you are either an idiot with NFI (like Greedy or no$hitsherlock), you are impersonating a Roosters supporter on here and so you don't want what is best for us, you are one of those types of people who thrive on pain and misery or you personally know Bellamy and have a gripe with him or you are related/friends to a coaching rival who you would like to see coach us, i just don't get why you would not want him!!
i dont waNT BELLYACHE SMELLING OUT OUR HOUSE WITH his decidely cheating aura? i agree hes an excellent coach but then so can bennet be and we all know how that turned out?
id rather fitzy as coach after mr smiths contract has expired?

No, it doesn't get my approval as a matter of fact.
The same old tired line get's thrown out time and time again. "I got told, but i can't say who"......bullshit!
You're missing my point too. Nobody else has been caught, Melbourne has....enough said.

Where did i say i didn't want Bellamy?
There's no other coach i would rather tbh.
I just don't believe people who come here saying 'i know this' or 'i know that'.
If you knew anything, you wouldn't be on a rooster's forum on a Sunday afternoon trying to convince people about it.
Bellamy, slater, smith etc had no idea about the salary cap indiscretions. They were too busy on their yachts and jet skis to understand about all that.
How boring another Bellamy thread. There's no good reason why he would want to come here and if he did he'd be unlikely to achieve much without the green light to cheat he gets at Melbourne. Next.
