"I'm really excited. It was awesome fun playing with Kalyn at the start of the year," Pearce said.
"He's obviously a brilliant player and makes your job easier as a halfback.
"I'm really excited for getting back and hopefully, getting some combinations going.
"So hopefully, he plays but if he doesn't, he'll be there the week after."

Should something go wrong, Pearce is confident the Club has the troops to cover for their loss.
Both Jack Cogger and Nick Meaney will travel with the team and enter the fold if needed.
"If they don't play, I'm sure there are other guys that are going to fill that role," Pearce said.
"We'll attack the game the same way as we were going to in the first place."
