Nate Myles to make Melbourne Storm debut off bench<br />
VETERAN PROP Nate Myles<br />
is set to make his Melbourne<br />
Storm debut after being named<br />
on the bench to face the<br />
Parramatta Eels on Saturday<br />
night.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 230-game former<br />
Queensland forward made a<br />
mid-season move to Melbourne<br />
from Manly and has been<br />
recovering from a dislocated<br />
elbow.<br />
But a strong showing in the<br />
Queensland Cup last weekend,<br />
plus the loss of six Storm players<br />
to Queensland’s State of Origin<br />
side, has led to Myles being<br />
added to the Storm’s starting 17<br />
this round, <strong>The</strong> Sydney Morning<br />
Herald reported.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Storm won’t confirm<br />
their final side until game<br />
day but Myles’ leadership and<br />
experience is seen as an asset<br />
with captain Cameron Smith,<br />
Cooper Cronk, Billy Slater, Tim<br />
Glasby, Will Chambers and<br />
Cameron Munster all missing<br />

the game due to State of Origin<br />
preparations.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Eels have lost no players<br />
to Origin so have stars such<br />
as Michael Jennings, Corey<br />
Norman and Semi Radradra in<br />
their starting side.<br />
Another mid-season Storm<br />
signing, former South Sydney<br />
forward Robbie Rochow, has<br />
made the 21 outside the game<br />
day side, but could still<br />
come into the team later in the<br />
week.<br />

Emerging hooker Slade<br />
Griffin will have a big job<br />
replacing Cameron Smith and<br />
is set for bigger minutes in the<br />
No 9 jumper as fellow hooker<br />
Brandon Smith, who previously<br />
shared that role with Griffin, is<br />
out injured.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Storm have named<br />
Kenny Bromwich, Joe Stimson,<br />
Mark Nicholls and Myles on<br />
the interchange bench, while<br />
Jahrome Hughes is back at<br />
fullback after deputising<br />
Thursday <strong>July</strong> 6 <strong>2017</strong><br />
for Billy Slater in the loss to<br />
Sydney Roosters two weeks<br />
ago.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Storm have made 10<br />
additions to their extended<br />
21-man side, while Jordan<br />
McLean was not named as<br />
he recovers from a fractured<br />
cheekbone.<br />
