Team announcement: Round 22 v Eels
The Melbourne Storm run-on side will undergo a shuffle Friday night as they prepare to take on Parramatta Eels at Marvel Stadium for Women in League Round.
Nelson Asofa-Solomona and Reimis Smith face stints on the sideline after suffering injuries in Round 21, with Tom Eisenhuth and Marion Seve lining up in place of the injured duo respectively.
Young Tonumaipea will also make his third appearance of the year in the starting squad alongside Seve in the centres, while forward Eli Katoa looks to make a return through the interchange bench after a Round 15 eye injury kept him from the NRL field.
