Storm v Warriors, Tuesday, 7.00pm at AAMI Park
Storm: Tariq Sims has moved into the starting side an hour before kick-off with Nelson Asofa-Solomona to come from the bench in his return from a knee injury. Alec MacDonald (elbow) and Tom Eisenhuth (hip flexor) dropped off the bench on Monday and were replaced by Aaron Pene and Tyran Wishart. Fullback Nick Meaney returns after missing Round 7 due to delayed concussion symptoms so Cameron Munster goes back to the halves.
