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 />

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 />
