Deavin & Gohdes called up.
The Kookaburras have made two changes to the squad for the Rabobank Hockey World Cup, which begins on Saturday in The Hague.Victorian Glenn Simpson has been withdrawn from the squad after sustaining a fractured ankle in last Sunday’s Test match against England. He will be replaced by Tasmanian Tim Deavin, who is one of two travelling reserves to have trained and played with the World Cup team in England and the Netherlands over the past ten days.
After
sustaining a calf tear in a practice match against Germany on Thursday,
Victorian Russell Ford (pictured) has also been withdrawn from the
squad. Ford will be replaced by Queenslander Matt Gohdes, who is already
with the team in The Hague as a travelling reserve.
Both Deavin and Gohdes were members of the Australian team that won the bronze medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
