Storm season enters tough phase with eight players involved in rep games Cameron Smith is one of eight Storm players called up for rep duty. A BYE weekend for most NRL players will be anything but that for the Storm. Eight Melbourne players will complete representative duties this weekend before backing up on Thursday week for an Anzac Day clash with the Warriors. The representative period is always tough for the Storm, and a wealth of planning could not allay coach Craig Bellamy's concern, which was increased after two more injuries in their win over South Sydney on Saturday night. Prop Siosaia Vave tore his calf and lock Ryan Hinchcliffe strained a medial ligament in his knee, putting both on the sidelines for at least a month. Bellamy will have to dig deep into his playing list to find the troops needed to keep the Storm's unbeaten record intact. I'm not too worried about it. I wouldn't be getting too much sleep if I was. I know it's there, we've planned for it," Bellamy said. We know it is a real tough period. Cameron Smith, Billy Slater and Cooper Cronk were called up to represent Australia in Friday's Test in Canberra. Ryan Hoffman missed a Kangaroos berth and will play for City against Country on Sunday. Prop Jesse Bromwich was named in the 19-man Kiwi squad with Kevin Proctor, who was called on after an injury to Sonny Bill Williams and with a suspension likely for Jeremy Smith. And a one-off Test between Samoa and Tonga indigenous at Penrith will see Storm's Junior Sa'u and Mahe Fonua represent their respective countries. Hinchcliffe could miss up to six weeks, ending his push for an Origin call-up. He was to play for Country Origin this week. Storm retained top spot on the ladder and an undefeated record after Saturday's win, but Smith said the best was yet to come. "We are a bit off the mark with some of the things we want to do," he said.
