Team Announcement: Round 5 v Panthers
Melbourne Storm has named its squad for Friday's Round 5 game against the undefeated Penrith Panthers at CommBank Stadium.
Head Coach Craig Bellamy has made one forced change following last week’s defeat to the Cowboys, with Nick Meaney returning at centre to replace Moses Leo (delayed concussion symptoms).
With prop Tui Kamikamica also unavailable, the bench features forwards Davvy Moale, Jack Hetherington, Cooper Clarke and Lazarus Vaalepu, alongside utility Tyran Wishart and outside back Manaia Waitere.
The extended reserves include Angus Hinchey, Trent Toelau and Preston Conn.
Friday’s game kicks-off at 8pm, live on Channel 9 / Fox Sports.
