Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy extends contract until 2028, embracing the decision despite retirement talks, and looks forward to the season opener against Canberra Raiders.
Last week, the Melbourne Storm confirmed that coach Craig Bellamy would be extending his tenure at the club until 2028.
With the talks of retirement looming every year, the multi-premiership-winning coach explained his decision to extend his coaching contract at a press conference yesterday.
"I wouldn't say it was an easy decision, but it's the decision we have come to and one I am going to embrace. I am really looking forward to Friday night and the rest of the season."
The Storm will play their first trial game tonight against the Canberra Raiders, both teams largely playing their reserve grade sides.
