Melbourne Storm legend Cameron Smith is reportedly putting retirement plans on the backburner in seeking a two-year contract extension from the club.In a bizarre situation, the competition's games record holder is not currently contracted for 2019 as negotiations with Melbourne have reportedly stalled.Reports emerged on Wednesday that the two-time
Dally M winner was eyeing off a deal running until the end of 2020, a year longer than the Storm had been planning for.Were he to get the new deal and stay fit, it would see Smith, currently on 384 games, smash past the 400 mark.The question however remains whether Smith and the club will reach an agreement.Young Kiwi hooker Brandon Smith has shown plenty of promise, but at 22 will want to start seeing more game time.Melbourne may risk losing him if the captain does hang around for another two seasons.
