Bellamy diagnosed with neurodegenerative disorder

Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy has been diagnosed with an unspecified neurodegenerative disorder but will remain in his position immediately.

The 66-year-old rugby league veteran recently underwent medical tests after the club issued a statement 24 hours before their NRL clash with the Dolphins in Brisbane. Specialists have confirmed that Bellamy's coaching abilities will not be affected in the immediate future.

Bellamy, who has been with Melbourne Storm for many years, will continue his duties as coach while managing his health condition. The club has not specified the exact nature of the neurodegenerative disorder. biznow.biz
