Warriors squad for Melbourne

New Zealand Warriors State of Origin player Kevin Campion is a possible starter for Saturday's NRL match against the Melbourne Storm, but coach Daniel Anderson will not be making a decision on whether he plays until after Wednesday's opening Origin match. Anderson has kept the same starting line-up as that which beat reigning premiers Newcastle last Friday but says he will wait until Campion undergoes a fitness test after Wednesday night's Queensland-New South Wales match before deciding if he is up to playing.

The Warriors, currently third-equal with last weekend's victim Newcastle, are gunning for their fifth straight win, and the team will take great heart from their 20-10 victory over the Storm in round seven when the two teams met at Ericsson Stadium.

Key playmaker Stacey Jones has resumed light training after suffering a knee injury and it is hoped he will be back playing in a couple of weeks, in the meantime Anderson will keep the same halves pairing that worked so brilliantly against the Knights.

Lance Hohaia stays at stand-off and Motu Tony at halfback for a crucial clash against the Storm's Scott Hill and Matt Orford.

The only change to the bench sees the re-introduction of prop Richard Villasanti, whose inclusion means there is no place for the rampaging Iafeta Palea'asina.
