Both the Roosters and Storm find themselves just outside the Top 4 which makes this a crucial match in the City of Churches. The Roosters will be missing Boyd Cordner, Joseph Manu and Ryan Matterson, while Jared Waerea-Hargreaves has been named on an extended bench after the short turnaround from the Test match between England and New Zealand in Denver. Meanwhile, the Storm have named their Origin stars in Billy Slater, Will Chambers, Josh Addo-Carr, Cameron Munster and Felise Kaufusi to take their spots against the Roosters. However, keep an eye on team news as there could be late changes.

Final ThoughtsThe Wolf is happy to play the Storm here if all of their Origin stars do indeed back-up as listed on Tuesday. Melbourne have won four of the last five against the Roosters, and have the advantage of a fresh Cameron Smith after he announced his retirement from representative football before this year’s Origin series.
