Cameron Munster 'king of Brisbane' if he joins expansion team

Cameron Munster would become "the king of Brisbane" if he switched to the NRL's looming expansion club, rugby league Immortal Andrew Johns says. Test playmaker Munster is contracted at Melbourne until the end of 2023, yet last week expressed interest in returning to Queensland. The Maroons State of Origin superstar tops the shopping list for prospective new franchises, eyeing off possible admission for the NRL's 2023 season. A new club could make a statement with a mega-offer for Munster, something that Johns believes the Storm would not do. "They won't, because they won't mess with their salary cap. They won't pay [overs]," Johns said on Wide World of Sports' Freddy and the Eighth. "If he goes to Brisbane, he's the king of Brisbane, like Locky (Darren Lockyer) was. All that corporate support he would get up there. "I love watching him play and I love how he lives his life. Live and let live.
