Team announcement: Round 12 v Sea Eagles

Melbourne Storm has named its squad to face the Manly Sea Eagles on Friday night at 4 Pines Park in Indigenous Round.

Head coach Craig Bellamy has made one change to the starting lineup that produced a 32-point win over the Eels in Round 11 with Jahrome Hughes named to fill the void left by the injured Cameron Munster in the halves.

Should he pass all fitness requirements during the week, the New Zealand International will make his return from a calf injury and slot back into his customary halfback role, with Tyran Wishart shifting to the No. 6 jersey.

Meanwhile, Tui Kamikamica is named to start at prop in his 100th NRL game, with Josh King named at lock.

Trent Loiero, Grant Anderson, Nelson Asofa-Solomona and Alec MacDonald will make up the bench once again, with Bronson Garlick named as 18th man.
