The 2026 Melbourne Storm season is the 29th in the club's history, competing in the 2026 NRL season. The team is coached by Craig Bellamy, coaching the club for a 24th consecutive season. Harry Grant continued as club captain for a third season.[1]

The club will also field teams in the New South Wales Rugby League competitions, including women's teams for the first time.

Season summary

  • Preseason – Joining the NRL squad during the preseason were uncapped development players Suli Pole, Angus Hinchey, Preston Conn and Mitchell Jennings.[2]
  • 5 January – It was reported that Melbourne were interested in signing former Parramatta Eels player Zac Lomax who had been conditionally released from his contract following the end of the 2025 season.[3] As part of his conditional release, Lomax could not join another NRL club until the end of the 2028 NRL season.[4]
  • 6 January – Video is published of Eliesa Katoa undertaking a club preseason training session following surgery to relieve pressure on his brain in November 2025. Katoa had been ruled out of returning to the field for the entire 2026 season after suffering three head knocks while on international duty with Tonga.[5]
  • 9 January – Melbourne confirm the impending departures of both Nick Meaney and Tyran Wishart at the end of the 2026 season.[6] Both players had signed with expansion team Perth Bears for their inaugural season in 2027.[7]
  • 13 January – It was reported that club CEO Justin Rodski turned down an approach to become the next CEO of the Essendon Football Club. Rodski had previously been an executive at the AFL club before joining the Storm.[8]
  • 6 February – The club announces that coach Craig Bellamy had signed a contract extension that will see him remain at the club until the end of the 2028 NRL season. Bellamy had previously had a rolling contract with the club as he entered his 24th season as head coach of the Storm, having coached the club in over 600 NRL matches.[9][10][11]
  • 13 February – In their first match of the 2026 NRL Pre-season Challenge, a youthful Storm team captained by Trent Loiero, but missing a host of first grade regulars, struggled against the Canberra Raiders at Queanbeyan's Seiffert Oval, going down 32–6. Melbourne's only try was scored by Liam Williams late in the second half.[12]
  • 20 February – Melbourne confirm that winger Xavier Coates will miss at least the first three months of the season after requiring Achilles tendon surgery. It was the same injury that forced Coates to miss the 2025 Kangaroo tour of England.[13][14]
  • 21 February – Melbourne fail to score in the second half of their final Pre-season Challenge match against the Gold Coast Titans, going down 42–12 at Sunshine Coast Stadium.[15]
  • 26 February – The club announced that it had entered into a pathways partnership with Mounties, for players from that club to play in the NSW Cup competition with Melbourne, and Victorian players to play in the Ron Massey Cup competition with Mounties.[16]
  • 27 February – Melbourne confirm that Harry Grant will continue as captain for a third season, heading an unchanged leadership group from the previous season. The club expanded its emerging leadership development program with Stefano Utoikamanu, Alec MacDonald and Ativalu Lisati joining Trent Loiero and Tyran Wishart in that group.[1]
  • 3 March – An out of court settlement was reached between Parramatta, Zac Lomax and Melbourne Storm following litigation commenced by Parramatta in the New South Wales Supreme Court to enforce their conditional release entered into with Lomax. It was reported that Melbourne paid A$250,000 to Parramatta to avoid further litigation and for Lomax to be available to join another NRL club without Parramatta's consent from November 2027. Melbourne were not able to come to an agreement with Parramatta to sign Lomax for the 2026 season, with Eels forward Ryan Matterson not entertaining a move to Melbourne to enable his contract payments to be removed from the Eels salary cap.[17][18] There were also reports that Melbourne had offered Josiah Pahulu or Lazarus Vaalepu to Parramatta in order to facilitate the signing of Lomax.[19]
  • Round 1 – Melbourne score a dominant 52–4 win against the Parramatta Eels to extend the club's round 1 winning streak to 24 matches. Captain Harry Grant scored two tries, as did Sualauvi Fa'alogo. Rookies Cooper Clarke and Preston Conn made their NRL debuts after being members of the club's 2025 Jersey Flegg Cup premiership winning squad. Forward Davvy Moale made his club debut after joining the Storm for the 2026 season.

Jerseys

Home
Away

In November 2023, Melbourne Storm announced a new sponsorship and apparel partnership agreement with Irish sportswear company O'Neills.[52] In March 2025, major sponsor RedZed extended their partnership with the club until the end of the 2028 season, with their logo to remain on the club's jersey for a seventh season.[53] Insurance company Budget Direct joined the club as a new sponsorship partner, with the logo added to the sleeves of all jerseys.[54]

Home

Unveiled in November 2025, the club's refreshed jersey sees purple return as the predominant colour of the home jersey design. The design featured a gold chevron beneath a navy blue yoke, while the shoulder panels and sleeves were both purple. A new addition were gold lightning bolts inside the sleeve cuffs.[55]

Away

Also released for sale in November 2025, the club's away jersey also was refreshed for 2026. Predominantly white and worn with white shorts, the jersey features a simple design with purple, navy blue and gold chevrons across the top of the chest. A subtle pattern through the design was said to be "inspired by the topography of Melbourne," while the sleeve cuffs also featured a lightning bolt motif similar to the home jersey.[56]

NSW Cup team

After ending their Queensland Cup affiliations during 2025, Melbourne reinstated a team in the New South Wales Rugby League's New South Wales Cup competition. It will be the first time since the 2010 season that the club had a reserve grade team operating out of Melbourne.[57]

2025 Jersey Flegg Cup premiership coach Mark Russell took the reigns as coach of the team.[57][58]

Junior Representatives

The club entered teams in the 2026 New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL) male junior representative competitions with the following coaching staff:

Todd Lowrie was appointed the club's Head of Development in addition to his role with the NRL squad.[58]

In a first for the Melbourne Storm, the club entered teams into the NSWRL's female junior representative competitions, the Under-19s Tarsha Gale Cup and the Under-17s Lisa Fiaola Cup.[58] Former Cronulla Sharks development coach Jack Gould was appointed the coach of both teams, under female pathways manager Pauline Poloai.[60] Janan Billings would take the role as coach of the Under-17s squad before the start of the season, leaving Gould in charge of just the Under-19s squad.

Most home matches for each of the junior representative squads were scheduled to be played at Seabrook Reserve in Broadmeadows, the home of NRL Victoria. Some matches were also scheduled for Gosch's Paddock, the training venue for the NRL team.
