[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 1102509, member: 39190"] That is amazing news! Now to lure Gelant back. You must jump ship and support the Stormers! I don't know anything official regarding funding but all indications are certainly that there is more money floating around. - apart from the Lions the other SA sides have lost little and got in some big names. - Sharks obviously ahead of the pack in that regards but they got some money in from Roc Nation so no surprises there. Wonder what the long terms implications will be. - Stormers obviously couldn't match Kolbe's deal at Toulon BUT the reported ~R11 mil you can't imagine being a number the Stormers would've been bandying about 2 or 3 years ago. What I am more excited about than getting in big names is the possibility of retaining our up and comers. SA sides have been hamstrung by huge squad rotations and not being able to build any sort of consistency for way too long. [/QUOTE]
