Melbourne Storm have selected their 22-man squad to take on the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks as the men in purple return to AAMI Park for a club acknowledgement of Indigenous Round.
After failing a head injury assessment in the first half of Round 14, Justin Olam will be rested this week and replaced by Grant AndersonĀ in the centres, alongside Reimis Smith.
Anderson has been a regular on the Storm team sheet during 2023 appearing on the bench on numerous occasions. It will be a familiar run for the 23-year-old after taking the field for the Papua New Guinean earlier in the season when he suffered a forearm injury.
The rest of the team remain unchanged from previous rounds with Cameron Munster and Harry Grant continuing to back up after their Origin win last week, while Kane Bradley and Marion Seve once again make an appearance on the extended interchange.
