  • Late mail; Liu in Evans out

    http://www.roosters.com.au/news/2014...l_round_5.html

    Trent Robinson has confirmed his side for tonight's Men of League Heritage Round clash with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, with the Head Coach making a change from the Team named on Tuesday evening.

    Returning front-rower Isaac Liu has been added to the bench in place of Kane Evans, with Liu set to make his first appearance of the 2014 NRL Season after injuring himself at the Auckland 9s in February.

    Liu made 15 appearances last season after impressing Robinson and his Coaching Staff in recents seasons for both the Newtown Jets and Roosters Under 20s.

    Liu averaged 8.2 runs, ran for 73.8 metres and averaged 16.5 tackles per game in his debut NRL season and will undoubtedly be a welcome addition to the side this evening.

    Liu's return sees Frank-Paul Nuuasala shift to the front-row, Aidan Guerra into lock and Dylan Napa to the bench alongside Liu, Daniel Mortimer and Mitchell Aubusson.

    Nice to have the return of Liu, but based on form so far I believe Evans deserved selection over Napa. That's not saying Napa hasn't played good, but I think Evans has been strong so far.

      Evans is better with the ball but Napa's defence is what will be needed tonight.

        I hope Kane Evans makes it in the NRL. As long as he doesn't go down the same path as his old man, he'll be right.
