Fiji Bati forward Tariq Sims has reportedly “agreed” to join the Storm but until next season due to Melbourne’s tight 2022 salary cap.

Sims had been linked to a move to the Storm prior to the powerhouse club copping three brutal injury blows in Round 1.

The 32-year-old’s Dragons contract expires at the end of the season and the club has already informed him that he won’t be offered a new deal.

Sims was also overlooked for selection in Round 1.

The Dragons will face the Panthers on Friday at 7 pm.

Meanwhile, you can catch the Storm vs Rabbitohs match live on the FBC Sports channel on Thursday at 9 pm.

The delayed coverage of Sharks and Eels will be shown on Sunday at 9.30 pm on the FBC Sports channel.
