Felt like they did that with Bradley last week though

Grant Anderson dropped for Marion Seve

Craig Bellamy's Storm run-on side sees a few changes in the 24-hour Team Update ahead of Sunday afternoon's clash with the Sharks at AAMI Park.

Justin Olam will rested following his HIA ruling last week giving Marion Seve the opportunity to return to the Melbourne centres after a rehabilitation stint in the Hostplus Cup in place of Grant Anderson who drops away from the 22-man squad.

Tyran Wishart and Tom Eisenhuth are promoted to the interchange bench with forward Aaron Pene joining Kane Bradley in the remaining reserves.

Bronson Garlick and Sua Fa'alogo also drop away from the team named on Tuesday, instead going on to represent the Sunshine Coast Falcons this weekend.

I like the look of the bench - 3 forwards and a utility plus Tom Eisenhuth is versatile.

Bellamy has made the right calls here, well done. It’s up to the players now to show up and get that W!

Hoping Seve has a blinder and puts some pressure on the outside backs

Maybe not dropping any of the starters again will finally solve our issues

What is with our issues of grounding the ball properly for tries? Think we got away with one there

Not surprised by this bounce back, last week was the darkest day for a long time, very happy with the effort so far, everyone’s been huge particularly Harry & Tui, keep it up lads!

Credit where it’s due brilliant first half. The middles punching holes and laying a great platform is such a difference. And Coates has brought his “A” hands to - best game for sometime. His chase back when Mulitalo was chasing a kick was some effort

Like chalk and cheese to second half last week.

Let's keep it going in second half.

Think Tom and Tariq have been solid since they came on.

Just a completely different team when the forwards hold their own and Harry can weave his magic.

Kudos to Coates for bringing his hands to this one.

So the Dragons beat the rabbits, the knights went ever so close to doing the broncos and we're currently demolishing the sharks after getting towelled up last week... this season is so strange
