Storm Cloud reveals the hidden story of Melbourne Storm. Founded in 1998 in the middle of the AFL heartland, Melbourne Storm fast established itself as one of the Australia's greatest football teams. Winning three of five grand finals and producing the best players in the game, it seemed infallible. But in 2010 it was all exposed as a fraud; the club had been rorting the salary cap. It was fined and stripped of premierships; staff were fired and shamed. No one was charged. Just two years later the team had another premiership in its hands. The rise, fall and rise of Melbourne Storm happened in a heartbeat. Paul Kennedy is a Melbourne-based television sport journalist with the ABC. He is the co-author of the expose, Hell on the Way to Heaven, which examined the Catholic Church and sexual abuse. Paul is also an experienced football coach who studies leadership and winning cultures.
