Team News
Storm
Storm stars, Harry Grant and Cameron Munster will play their first games of the 2022 season, with both showing great signs in pre-season training.
After missing Round 1, Jesse Bromwich will start in the front-row and will be sole captain with Christian Welch out for the season following an Achilles rupture.
Victorian Dean Ieremia will start on the wing, replacing George Jennings who suffered a suspected season-ending ACL tear against the Tigers. Last year’s recipient of the Billy Slater Medal as Storm Rookie of the Year, Ieremia scored six tries in 10 appearances in his debut season.
Rabbitohs
The Club welcomes back fullback Latrell Mitchell into their lineup, with Alex Johnston returning to the left-wing.
