Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy has confirmed that Cameron Munster will require surgery after suffering a compound dislocation to his finger, adding to an already lengthy injury list for the club. Munster left the field clutching his right hand in the first half of the Storm's 16-12 win in the season-opener against the Parramatta Eels, before returning to complete the match. Bellamy and Storm skipper Christian Welch lauded Munster's toughness, with the star five-eighth playing a crucial second-half role in the win after returning to the field with his hand strapped up. "I actually didn't see him come from the field," Bellamy said after the match. "Great players like that just give confidence to the group that they need to just do their role and someone like Munster will create something." "Hopefully he can have it (the operation) early in the week, we've got a bit of a longer turnaround, but I'm not quite sure until I speak to our physio and doctor.
