Team Announcement: Round 27 v Broncos

Craig Bellamy has confirmed his squad for Thursday night’s Round 27 match-up with the Broncos at Suncorp Stadium.

11 players who did not feature in last week’s clash with the Cowboys return for Storm’s trip to Brisbane. Ryan Papenhuyzen will miss the match after suffering bone bruising in Storm’s last start on Thursday night with Sua Fa’alogo stepping into the number one jersey at fullback as his replacement.

Xavier Coates has been named in the 22-man squad and is in line to return from a hamstring injury. If the winger features at Suncorp Stadium it will be his first game at first-grade level since Round 17.
