Melbourne Storm  up and comer  Matt McGahan,to play ITM Cup rugby with North Harbour next season. But the real talent remains in the Storm. Matt, son of former Kiwis great Hugh became disillusioned with the Storms desire to turn him into a hooker; he prefered to continue playing as a scrum half. This leaves a gap in the Storm's wider training group, and an opportunity for another player. Cade Umaga, the son of former AB's captain, Tana, is moving back to rugby as well.  He lacked the defensive qualities needed in a potential League first grader. Its farewell and good luck to both players.
