Marshs exit was controversial, however, with the 24-year-old given out caught and bowled smashing into his toe on 41 after the on-field officials went to the third umpire having seen a replay of the incident on the big screen.McCullum showed his expertise in the field, too, catching Adam Zampa at slip to get Australia nine-down, before Henry Nicholls ran out last man Scott Boland from point to send his skipper out on a high.I have been incredibly lucky to play for 14 years with some great blokes and make some good friends, not just in New Zealand but in other countries as well, said McCullum. They are memories I will hold for the rest of my life.Watch New Zealand and Australias two-Test series on Sky Sports, starting with the opener, in Wellington, from 9.25pm, Thursday, Sky Sports 3.nike vapormax skroutz . - Goaltender Philippe Desrosiers of the Rimouski Oceanic has broken a shutout record that was only three months old in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. nike vapormax γυναικεια .

"Id love to look at those opportunities as they arise," Pierce said in an interview from his Winnipeg eatery.St George Illawarra have caused one of the upsets of the NRL season with a 32-18 win over a Cronulla side, minus Paul Gallen, to all but end the Sharks minor premiership tilt.In front of a vocal 13,167 crowd at UOW Jubilee Oval, mid-season signing Tariq Sims played his best game for the Red V, breaking a heated local derby open on Saturday by scoring two tries in the second half and setting up a third in the space of 10 minutes.The win ends a five-game losing streak for the Dragons but, more importantly, lifts them to 11th spot and within two points of eighth-placed Penrith.For the Sharks, the loss leaves them without a win three games, and one point behind ladder leaders Melbourne, who play Canberra on Monday, raising serious questions about their premiership ambitions.Gallen was a late withdrawal from the game, pulling out with a calf injury in the warm-up.We were getting a fair way into the warm-up and I felt a nick in my calf, strained my calf slightly. Had a quick ultrasound and theres a slight tear. Ill get a scan tomorrow, he told Fox Sports during the game.Down 12-6 at halftime, Sims kicked off his game-changing spurt in the 49th minute, trampling over James Maloney and offloading for Mitch Rein to level the scores.The former Newcastle forward then gave his team the lead when he pounced on a Gareth Widdop grubber in the 54th minute, before powering over from close range.A Ricky Leutele try and Maloney penalty reduced the gap to six with 10 minutes to play, however the Dragons held on for one of their most-impressive wins of the season.The 32 points is a season-high, while it is also the first time in five weeks they have scored more than two tries.The Dragons made their intentions clear from the kickoff, twice shifting wide in a set that also included two offlloads and ended in an attacking position.dddddddddddd.In an end-to-end opening to the match, Chad Townsend and Josh Dugan traded try-saving efforts before Benji Marshall chipped early in the tackle count for Euan Aitken to score.The best try of the night went to Sharks fullback Ben Barba, who finished off a 95-metre effort that began with winger Sosaia Feki streaking away after an early shift in front of their own sticks.Feki failed to come out of the sheds in the second half after succumbing to a groin injury, while forward Jesse Sene-Lefao could find himself in trouble for a high shot in the 52nd minute.Dragons coach Paul McGregor lauded Sims impact on the match, however he is resigned to losing him after he suffered an ankle injury late in the game.Tariqs been really good for us since hes been here. Hes played back row and middle, but Tariq going forward, is definitely a middle player, he said.As soon as he came on he made immediate impact. He played long minutes there. Unfortunately he got a strain in the ankle there late in the game.Well get it checked and hopefully it wont keep him out for many games.Sharks coach Shane Flanagan likened his teams poor form to Brisbanes mid-season slide and denied it was panic stations at the club but remained confident of turning it around.Were not playing good footy at the moment. Weve had boys at Origin, a couple of quick turnarounds and were a bit busted at the moment, he said.Now weve got a nine-day turnaround, were looking forward to that. Its similar to the Broncos, all teams go through it. Some things just arent working for us like they were earlier in the year.Well work really hard to find it. ' ' '
