Storm to be sold

It looks like its going to go ahead. The new owners must increase junior playing numbers in Melbourne.

This was the reason Melbourne made sure Bellamy was staying put and coaching the Storm....the complete package.

Junior based players in Melbourne is always going to be a problem. 95% of the youngsters grow up loving and playing AFL (Aussie Rules)
Being so successful over the years has helped things down in Melbourne greatly when it comes to recruiting members and juniors but the club can't afford to sit on their hands, they need to fight tooth and nail in order to keep things moving in the right direction.
