Some 11 Melbourne players will be rested from the club's penultimate game of the regular season as coach Craig Bellamy eyes a fit and firing Storm for the run through NRL finals.
The Storm locked up the minor premiership with last week's defeat of the Dolphins and consequently Jahrome Hughes, Harry Grant, Will Warbrick, Jack Howarth, Nick Meaney, Nelson Asofa-Solomona, Josh King, Shawn Blore, Eli Katoa, Trent Loiero and Tui Kamikamica will all be on ice for Thursday's away clash with North Queensland.
