Craig Bellamy has named a strong line-up full of NRL experience for his side’s final pre-season hit out prior to Round 1.

Nine players who featured in last year’s Grand Final will take to the field on the Sunshine Coast including State of Origin reps Harry Grant, Cameron Munster, Stefano Utoikamanu and Trent Loiero.

Munster will be partnered in the halves by the versatile Tyran Wishart while Victorian local product Sua Fa’alogo has been named in the number one jersey at fullback.

Will Warbrick and Nick Meaney will make their first appearances of pre-season, joining Moses Leo and Marion Seve to round out the backline.

Josh King will lead Storm’s forward pack alongside Utoikamanu as well as several reinforcements on the interchange bench including new recruits Davvy Moale and Jack Hetherington.

After featuring in last weekend’s All Stars match in New Zealand, Joe Chan, Trent Toelau and Manaia Waitere have all been named with Chan to partner with Ativalu Lisati in the back-row in Bellamy’s run on side.

Tickets for Saturday night’s match at Sunshine Coast Stadium are available from Ticketek here.
