Team Announcement: Round 21 v Eels
Melbourne Storm has announced its team for a Round 21 clash against the Parramatta Eels on Friday night at Commbank Stadium.
Having last featured in the Club's Magic Round win over the Eels back in Round 11, Storm superstar Cameron Munster is a chance of making his highly anticipated return from a groin injury after being named in the extended reserves.
In more positive news, Grant Anderson will line up on the wing after being cleared of any damage to his knee in the final seconds of last week's win over the Roosters.
Nelson Asofa-Solomona and Christian Welch are both set to return to the park after missing last week's win due to injury.
Young Storm forward Alec MacDonald will miss the match after suffering a shoulder injury in Round 20, with Lazarus Vaalepu maintaining his spot on the interchange bench.
Joe Chan is unavailable for the clash after entering an early guilty plea for his Dangerous Contact charge in the Club's win over the Roosters.
