«Breaking News» Cameron Smith drops a shock retirement hint in a puzzling post-match interview

In a surprising move a NRL superstar may backtrack on his retirement plans, hinting he may be done after next week's Grand Final.

Melbourne Storm captain Cameron Smith had announced he would go for the illusive milestone of playing 400 first grade games by playing until the end of 2019. 

But after his team's rout of the Cronulla Sharks on Friday night Smith suggested that this season may actually be his last when asked about his plans for next year.

If Smith does play on next year he would become the first player in NRL history to play 400 games

'I don't know, if we were to win it. If we were to go and play well next week, I don't know. You'd consider it wouldn't you,' he said. 

In a more surprising statement, Smith said his place in the team for next year was already up in the air 9 News reported.

'Maybe, dunno, I don't have a contract next year yet, we will just get through the week first and see what happens,' he said. 

However Smith went on to say he had the 'intention' of playing on next year but was just being honest on where things stood as of this weekend. 

'I've got all intention of going around next year, you guys posed the question to me. If we were to win would you consider it?,' he said.

The comments were made during the post game press conference and coach Craig Bellamy was present and gave his opinion on potentially losing both Smith and star fullback Billy Slater. 

'Losing one of them is bad enough we don't want to lose both of them,' he said. 

His comments came after the Storm steamrolled the Sharks  22 points to six at AAMI Park in Melbourne.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
