Last updated:
Knights: No changes one-hour before kick off with Jackson Hastings cut on Saturday after being overlooked for the No.7 jersey in favour of Jack Cogger on Tuesday. Co-captain Jayden Brailey has recovered from a hamstring injury and will come off the bench in his first game of the season, while Enari Tuala returns from a quad injury on the wing to fill the void left by Greg Marzhew (wrist). Adam O'Brien made two changes to the bench in the 24-hour update with Jack Hetherington and Jed Cartwright both dropping out in favour of Mat Croker and Dylan Lucas.
Storm: No late changes on game day with new signing Shawn Blore set for his first run in Melbourne colours after coming into the run-on side for Joe Chan, who has a hand infection, on Saturday. With Jahrome Hughes suspended, Tyran Wishart moves from the bench to halfback and Kane Bradley joins the interchange. Prop Christian Welch has entered the NRL's 11-day concussion protocol after failing a HIA against the Warriors.
