The imminent return of Jahrome Hughes has been soured by the suspension of Storm captain Harry Grant, who faces an enforced two-week break after Melbourne's hard-fought win over Canterbury.
The Storm moved four points clear of the third-placed Bulldogs on the back of the 20-14 victory at AAMI Park, with Canberra in the box seat to claim the minor premiership after downing Penrith in golden point earlier on Friday.
