THE Melbourne Storm

My favourite Rugby League team is the Melbourne Storm.  Let me me tell you all the N.R.L teams the the Storm have beaten. The Warriors, Sea Eagles, Dragons, Titans, Cowboys, Roosters, Panthers, Knights, Raiders, Sharks, Broncos, Westigers, Bulldogs, Eels and the Rabbitohs. The Storm are 2007 and 2009 Premiers.
Billy Slater, Greg Inglis, Cooper Cronk and Cameron Smith. All but one of the stars can stay. Who has to go?
Well it is Greg Inglis. The centre has been forced to leave the Storm because of the salary cap.
What is the salary cap you ask? Well I'll tell you.  Players can only be payed up to One Million Dollars but each team has only got  One Million to spend.  So they have to be very careful about who they buy.
The Storm is 3.7million dollars over the salary cap.
I am really angry that they did it because they had to let one of their stars go and the team won't be the same next year.

Hi Dylan,
Being over the salary cap must be a big disappointment to all Melbourne Storm fans. I support the Warriors and if I had to choose an Australian team it would probably be the Sharks. Mainly because my children have relatives that live in the Cronulla area (certainly not because they played great league this year!) I am really looking forward to the Four Nations cup - it must be starting quite soon. Let's hope we can win it!
Keep up the great writing.

Hi Dylan,
It is interesting that you support an Australian League team. You certainly are an avid fan. Look forward to reading who you think will reach the League finals in 2011.
