Melbourne Storm star fullback Billy Slater will play on for another season for the club.
Slater agreed to the one‑year deal after winning the man of the match in Melbourne's 2017 NRL Grand Final win over the Cowboys.
The 34‑year‑old made a stunning return from injury in 2017, having missed the bulk of the previous two seasons with two shoulder reconstructions.
Slater surprised his premiership‑winning teammates with the news on last night at the Storm's end‑of‑season awards.
