Craig Bellamy's side will look to return to winning circle after falling to their third defeat of the campaign against the Manly Sea Eagles last time out.

However, given their impressive home record, they will like their chances of taking the two points, having won 14 of their previous 15 meetings at AAMI Park.

Meanwhile, a four-game winning streak for Newcastle came to an abrupt end last week against the Canterbury Bulldogs. Adam O'Brien's side only managed two points despite having playing at home.

Melbourne Storm

Harry Grant and Xavier Coates have been listed as backups at this moment, with head coach Craig Bellamy picking a similar lineup to the one that last played back in Round 13. There is one enforced change on the flank due Will Warbrick's groin issue, with Grant Anderson stepping up from the bench and Bronson Garlick slots in the interchange to provide cover at hooker.

Here's the Storm' full team list for Round 14:

Newcastle Knights

Knights head coach Adam O'Brien has decided not a disappointing loss to the Bulldogs in Round 13, with the same 17 chosen to face the Storm. Prop Daniel Saifiti has been picked after sustaining a knee injury against the Bulldogs. Tyson Frizell will come off the bench, as he has in previous weeks, with Dylan Lucas and Kai Pearce-Paul the favoured starters yet again.
