I think the main thing he will bring to our game tonight is kicking i dont expect to see much of him taking the line on after his op

Finch is more of a Tim Smith type player (but a much better defender) than a Sam Tomkins. He doesn't have great pace but has a very good rugby/organising attributes.
So don't expect any 60 yard tries from him and give him a fair chance to settle in.

To be honest I am a little concerned by his inclusion tonight. For me this is the first warm up to the Grand Final with one more to come later in the year and I just worry that he will not be up to speed. Given our run of fixtures though we cannot delay getting him in, but I just get the feeling he may struggle and in a tight game that could well be the difference in where the 2 points goes.

I know what your saying jonh but look at it this way
We have a player that can kick very good we have been crying out for it
We have a player that can organise the team and run the show for us
If he wasn't ready he wouldn't be in even more so with sam back |

Okay then, I'll expect some 50 metre (We have gone metric, Rogue) tries and I'll give him until half time.  |

Any evidence of this or just more rumours? |

I hope he is out there tonight. I think we will need another experienced player on the pitch

Speaking to Melbourne Storm fans on a fans forum the one attribute they could not speak highly enough of was Brett Finch's defense. One of the best in the game for a halfback. |

Although that's good to hear, it's not really what we want most from a half back! |

It's a big part of Leuluai's game and everyone raves about him. |

Hopefully Finch plays to take the pressure off Leuluai, his long kicking game is not great and the crowd getting in his back won't help him. He can now concentrate on doing what he does best, running with the ball.

What I've been told from a usually reliable source, although has nothing to do with Wigan. |
