It hasn't been reported anywhere yet that I've seen but apparently Chayse Blair has had surgery on his foot...no idea how long he will be out and I haven't seen anything online confirming it ....knowing storm it would've never got out so our whole team is going to be rookies

1 Young
2 Suli
3 Justin Olam
4 Curtis Scott
5 Josh Addo Carr
6 Ryley Jacks if Cam Munster is in origin
7 Ryley Jacks Brodie Croft
8 Mark Nicolls
9 Brandon Smith
10 Jesse Bromwich
11 Kenny Bromwich
12 Dale Finucane (C)
13 Tohu Harris

Where's Tim Glasby? Or you assuming he is getting picked by Qld too.

Given Jeremy Hawkins has been in 21 man squad the last couple of weeks I would think he gets picked before Olam and Scott.

I'm predicting the team will be named like this
1. Young T
2. Vunivalu
3. Scott
4. Blair
5. JAC
6. Munster
7. Jacks
8. Glasby
9. Griffin
10. Bromwich
11. Kaufusi
12. Harris
13. Finucane
14. Smith
15. Bromwich
16. NAS
17. Nicholls
18. Stimson
19. Croft
20. Hawkins
21. Tui K
While I would love to see Kaufusi, Glasby and/or Munster named in the QLD side, I just don't think it's gunna happen. I mean Slaters not even guaranteed with the 3 bronco selectors. Also let's hope Coen Hess gets selected so he won't be playing

Was looking forward to this one as I am going to Richmond vs Sydney at the MCg and then straight across the road to this game. But it's merely an exhibition game.

Media talk of Glasby getting a call up. If that pans out, I'm happy for him but I think he was in better form last year tbh.

Sallymay is all over it as usual, Storm have confirmed that Cheyse Blair has had surgery on his ankle and will miss 3 to 4 weeks.

Injury News Out Of The Storm Camp

The Storm have been dealt a bit of an injury blow, with Jordan McLean and Cheese Blair sidelined for nearly a month.

McLean has undergone surgery after breaking his cheekbone during the clash with the Sharks on Thursday night.

He is expected to miss a month of footy. Blair has had minor ankle surgery, and will miss 3-4 weeks.

---

Yes, even the media are referring to Blair as "Cheese" :lol:

I just had a look at our player profiles on website and based on that we have 23 players (including Charlie Galo) available on Saturday. This also includes Munster. So just about every available player will be named tomorrow.

Interesting that Munster is 18the man. I assume as cover for JT. I assume Munster will be released for our game if JT is fit. The one change I could see is Wallace being suspended. If Wallace is suspended I could see Kaufusi possibly being called in as a replacement.
