Cameron Munster has revealed he is open to leaving the Melbourne Storm to play for the NRL’s new Brisbane expansion club.
Munster has signalled his intention to return to Queensland after telling The Courier Mail he “wouldn’t say no” to joining Brisbane’s second team if granted a licence for 2023.
A fourth Queensland club and 17th NRL team is expected to be announced by ARL chairman Peter V’landys in June or July.
Queensland superstar Munster is contracted to the Storm until the end of 2023.
“If another Brisbane team comes in, I won’t say no to going back home,” Munster told The Courier Mail.
“I do see myself moving to Queensland after football and if a second Brisbane team comes in, I could go back earlier than expected.
“I wouldn’t say no to that (joining Brisbane’s second team).”
Munster, 26, has played 131 games for the Storm and is a dual premiership winner in 2017 and 2020.
Storm legend Cameron Smith announced his retirement on Thursday while Brandon Smith and Josh Addo-Carr will be leaving the club at season’s end.
