NRL Late Mail: Round 22

Panthers v Storm, Thursday 7.50pm at BlueBet Stadium

Panthers: Full-back Dylan Edwards has been injured, with Charlie Staines promoted to the starting line-up when the team was called off 60 minutes before kick-off. Winger Taylan May was ruled out with a shoulder injury on Wednesday, so Sunia Turuva joins the starting line-up and Robert Jennings has been added to the bench. Viliame Kikau has made it into the starting line-up after recovering from a hip injury, leaving Chris Smith out. Matt Eisenhuth will start at close in place of the suspended James Fisher-Harris.

Storm: A late forward change with Brandon Smith to start at lock and Tui Kamikamica moving from the interchange to the second row. Josh King and Tom Eisenhuth move back to the bench. Cooper Johns looks set for an extended run in the halves, with Jahrome Hughes suffering a partially dislocated shoulder against the Titans. Nick Meaney returns from concussion, so Cameron Munster returns to the five-eighth position after taking on a more roving defensive role last week.
