2026 recruitment & retention

[Mark from Brisbane]

The Storm have been in the finals for the past 15 years. How? Why?
Putting aside their revenue base and 'financial cunning', the common denominator is Bellache, the training methods and their recruitment. He is able to identify unrealised talent and bring them through the grades. He also is skilled at taking average players from other clubs and improving them.
The Storm's success is not solely about their roster, which changes like those of other clubs, it's about a system.
We used to have this when Arko was in charge. We need a complete re-set to remain competitive against fully professionally-run clubs.

As I have said numerous times , their system is impeccable, from Bellyache right down, the best nutritionist , the best physios , the best sports Doctor , the best facilities , pick whatever you wish they have the best of everything.

Bellyache gets the credit , but the real credit goes to the system.
