Craig Bellamy has named his squad to face the Newcastle Knights at AAMI Park (finally) on Saturday night.

It's almost an unchanged lineup following our massive 46-0 win over the Roosters in round 16, with the exception of Welchy named to start and Tui on the bench.

All Origin reps have been selected to back up after the series finale tomorrow night.

Tui will play his 50th game for Storm while George celebrates 50 NRL games.

This will be our first home game since round 8 against Cronulla.
