The Melbourne Storm line-up returns with a pre-Origin feel as Craig Bellamy’s side look to take on the Manly Sea Eagles at AAMI Park in Round 17!

Xavier Coates, Cameron Munster and Harry Grant will look to back up following their Origin Game II efforts, while skipper Christian Welch and Justin Olam return to the pack.

Tom Eisenhuth once again finds a spot amongst the Storm run-on forwards as Eli Katoa continues to rehabilitate from an eye injury suffered in Round 15.

Following reliable performances last week, Bronson Garlick, Tyran Wishart, Jonah Pezet and Kane Bradley also secure their place within the interchange and extended bench.
