'There's no doubt he's growing into that role'

HULL KR BOSS OFFERS TOM AMONE VERDICT AND ADDRESSES JACK BROWN GAME TIME

- By WILLIAM JACKSON [e-mail] @WilliamJ93

WILLIE Peters has been more than encouraged by the way Tom Amone has found his feet at Hull KR over the last couple of months.

Amone arrived at Craven Park at the start of preseason while in the final stages of his recovery from the foot injury that saw his stint with Castleford Tigers come to a premature end.

And, he fractured his hand towards the end of preseason, which saw the 29-year-old sit out the club's opening game of the Super League.

However, the prop was deemed fit enough to make a debut in the World Club Challenge and he certainly made his presence felt by scoring a try in the historic win over Brisbane Broncos.
