Ponissi revealed that star fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen is still recovering from a neck injury sustained in Round 1 and is unlikely to play this weekend.
The Storm's medical staff are working around the clock to get him fit for the next game.
Despite this setback, Ponissi remains optimistic about the team's chances, stating that injuries are just a part of the game and they have a strong squad ready to step up in Papenhuyzen's absence.
He also confirmed that prop Nelson Asofa-Solomona is recovering well from a knee injury and is a chance of making his return this weekend.
The Storm have faced adversity before and always come out stronger on the other side, so fans can trust that the team will rise to the occasion once again.
It's all about resilience and determination in Rugby League, and the Storm are no strangers to success in the face of adversity.
So, Warriors beware, as Melbourne is ready to unleash their full force on the field come Saturday.
