Melbourne Storm will leave it to game day to decide if they will bring back key prop Jordan McLean against Brisbane Broncos tonight.
McLean has missed the last nine weeks due to an ankle injury and coach Craig Bellamy has ruled out playing him in the Queensland Cup competition, pointing to a need for McLean to be ready for the speed of the NRL.
The prop will return either against the Broncos or in next week's final‑round home clash with Cronulla Sharks.
The Storm play the Broncos tonight at 9.50.
