This sucks ...
I read that we had signed him for 2 years on LU ...
Exciting Storm youngster Jackson Nicolau will join the Cowboys next season with the club hoping he will prove to be Johnathan Thurston's long-term halves partner.
Melbourne had been grooming Nicolau as the replacement for Scott Hill, who will join London club Harlequins next season, but Storm recruitment head Peter O'Sullivan is philosophical about the 18-year-old Innisfail product's decision to move to Townsville.
"The Cowboys have offered way more than we can afford," O'Sullivan said."But one door closes and another door opens. We're talking to someone and hope to clinch a deal soon.
O'Sullivan said five-eighth was Nicoloau's best position."
