Team Announcement - Round 5 v Cowboys

Melbourne Storm has announced its 21-man squad to face the North Queensland Cowboys in Townsville under Friday night lights.

Josh Addo-Carr will start on the wing, making his return after dropping out of last week's squad for personal reasons.

He will be an important inclusion with Suli Vunivalu ruled out due to a one-week suspension.
