    Does he not have a contract with the Storm or don't such things matter in the world of rugby league?

    I don't know Jack

    CRAIG Bellamy's management will wait until Melbourne's extended premiership celebrations are concluded before commencing negotiations on a new contract for the supercoach.

    In the wake of Storm's grand final win over Canterbury on Sunday, Bellamy has spoken of the toll the year has taken on him.

    Bellamy's agent John Fordham said his client deserved to relax and enjoy the spoils of victory before sorting out his future.

    Fans storm civic reception

    Bellamy, who is contracted to the Storm for the 2013 season, has consistently said he would wait until the end of the NRL season to sort out his future.

    Storm officials are keen to fend off rival clubs and keep Bellamy in Melbourne beyond what will be his 11th season in charge next year.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
