Storm pair Jesse Bromwich and Cheyse Blair have been ruled out for Melbourne's Round 6 clash with Cronulla on Sunday afternoon.
Both players have been omitted due to back complaints, the loss of Bromwich offset by the return of Jordan McLean in the front row, with Young Tonumaipea joining the backline.
The Sharks have dropped Edrick Lee and Joseph Paulo from their extended squad for the trip to the Victorian capital.
