Good news for Melbourne Storm fans as fullback Billy Slater has been named to start tonight for their match against the Sydney Roosters.

Slater was likely to be ruled out of tonight’s blockbuster clash after aggravating a shoulder injury in Queensland’s win in the State of Origin match.

The fourth place Storm will also welcome back Origin players Cameron Smith and Cooper Cronk.

Fiji Bati player Marika Koroibete has also been named to start on the wing for Storm.

The Storm face the Roosters at 9pm tonight.
