NRL 2021: With Craig Bellamy secured, attention turns to Melbourne Storm successor

With Bellamy secured, attention turns to Storm successor Craig Bellamy will remain at the Melbourne Storm for the next five years, but it's unlikely the three-time premiership coach will have the reins of the first-grade team for that entire time. So who is in line to become the next head coach when the time comes? Former Storm halfback Brett Kimmorley is asked on NRL Teams 18 hours ago

NRL 2021: How the NBA's LA Lakers are inspired the Brisbane Firehawks expansion bid

It had better pull itself together in a hurry, though, because it’s about to have some serious competition with a second Brisbane team likely to launch in 2023. One of the serious bidders are the Brisbane Firehawks, who are competing for the NRL’s 17th licence along with the Redcliffe Dolphins and Brisbane Jets. The Firehawks are being funded by the Brisbane Tigers, better known as Easts Tigers, who have been around since 1934. It’s an old club with a booming Leagues Club, plenty of juniors and resources, but it’s taking a wildly unique approach in order to convince the wise souls on the ARL Commission it should be given the green light.

NRL 2021: Cronulla Sharks v Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, round 7 preview

Cronulla are hoping it will be a case of third time lucky against Canterbury Bankstown after successive late-game defeats to the Roosters and Knights. The Sharks coughed up the lead in those matches with eight and three minutes left, respectively, and have tumbled out of the top eight as a result. The clash with Canterbury presents the Sharks with a great opportunity to change their season's narrative and news that play-maker Shaun Johnson could be making his return adds to the positive vibes. The Bulldogs have finally got their attack working after going scoreless in three consecutive matches but back-to-back three-try efforts haven't been enough to compensate for a leaky defence.

NRL 2021: Round 7 Late Mail, team news, injury updates

Dylan Edwards (hand) and Api Koroisau (wrist) will return against the Knights but the pair won't be risked if they aren't ready. Edwards slotting in at fullback would solve a headache for Cleary, who could then move Stephen Crichton back to the centres to replace Paul Momirovski after he was suspended by the judiciary on Tuesday night. Titans winger Phil Sami (concussion) has been named on an extended bench to face the Rabbitohs and is a chance of playing. Former Storm star Will Chambers has been brought straight onto Cronulla's extended bench for the clash with the Bulldogs but the veteran outside back could have a run for feeder team Newtown to improve his match fitness.

Storm star Chambers becomes a Shark

Former Storm, Kangaroos and Queensland star Will Chambers has signed on at the Sharks for the remainder of the 2021 season. The premiership-winning centre, who was once the villain in a fierce rivalry with the Sharks dating back to the period surrounding the 2016 Grand Final, Chambers arrived in the Sutherland Shire on Sunday and is ready to put his best foot forward in bringing his experience and class to the Cronulla side this season. “It’s a bit different, it’s all a bit new at the moment, I’m taking it all in, getting to know the boys,” Chambers said following his first training session at the Sharks.
