Craig Bellamy says next Melbourne Storm coach should come from his assistants

Craig Bellamy has said the next Melbourne Storm coach should be one of his assistants. He told 7NEWS Sport: “I would imagine they will ask my opinion.” Bellamy stated he expects to be consulted on the appointment and favoured an internal choice from his coaching group. The comment signals he anticipates having a role in discussions about who succeeds as head coach. The former Storm mentor’s view, as reported by 7NEWS Sport, places internal assistants at the centre of the debate over the club’s next coaching appointment.
