Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3235666, member: 9853"] [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I][B]Kevin Walters [/B]says [B]Tommy Dearden [/B]is back on the bench replacing [B]John Asiata[/B]:[/I] “Tom will come into the 17 again, we feel he did enough to retain his position in the side. John Asiata will drop out of the 17. Depending on the situation of the game, there are some big forwards, so we won’t introduce Tom too much, too early. He can play a good role for us off the bench, whether it’s through the middle or the hooking role or in the halves. He has a lot of bases covered for us and that’s why he is in the 17. He is versatile and we feel he can bring lots of energy when he’s on the field.” “We feel Brodie did enough last week to maintain his position in the side. I want to see more of the same from Brodie. I thought he had a strong game last week, he created some good opportunities. There were some opportunities he missed and didn’t take, particularly around his communication with the forwards and setting up the play. Defensively he has been very strong and he will have to be again (on Friday night). We are looking forward to a similar performance, particularly that second 40 minutes where we controlled the ball and controlled the tempo of the game.” “Payne feels he owes the team and it’s great to have him back (from suspension). He is a great guy to bring back into the side, a powerful forward and he and Matt Lodge will bring some grunt to our forwards. They are two of the better middle forwards in our squad so we welcome them back with open arms against a Storm side who have one of the best packs in the competition.” McHunt[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
