Warriors hooker Issac Luke says new boss Stephen Kearney is just the tonic the club needs to cure their defensive woes.The Warriors were the third-worst defensive side in the NRL in 2016, conceding 101 tries and more than 600 points overall as they crashed out of finals contention.The failure to reach the finals for a fifth consecutive year convinced club boss Jim Doyle to demote the incumbent Andrew McFadden and bring in Kearney for three seasons.Kearney, who has guided the Kiwis to the 2008 World Cup and a pair of Four Nations crowns, learned his craft under defensive master Craig Bellamy at the Storm between 2006 and 2010.Luke hoped his former Test boss could bring some of that magic to his new club.He really helped the Storm with their defence, so if we can get anywhere near that, well shut down a lot of teams, Luke said.The boys are excited to have him on board.Luke, 29, said Kearneys passion and renowned diligence would get the best out of the clubs inexperienced playing roster.Young guns such as backs David Fusitua and Solomone Kata, playmaker Tuimoala Lolohea and forward Albert Vete would all benefit from Kearneys appointment.New recruit Kieran Foran would also find a welcoming environment in Auckland after a tough 12 months off the field,a cccording to Luke.To bring that to a club with a lot of youngsters who have that energy and ambition and to be able to put them in the right places, its going to be good, Luke said.Meanwhile, fullback Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is aiming to make his comeback to the footy field in next Februarys Auckland Nines.Tuivasa-Sheck was signed by the club amidst much fanfare at the beginning of 2016 but suffered a season-ending knee injury after just seven NRL games.The 23-year-old said his knee was responding well to training and would be good to go after the Warriors pre-season campaign.Im on track with my rehab, Im back on the grass and so much happier now that Im running a lot, Tuivasa-Sheck said.

Paul Georges buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter spurred a 21-4 run, finally sending Indiana past the Magic 97-87 in a tougher-than-expected opening night matchup. Three batsmen made centuries, while another missed his by eight runs as Delhi buried Assam under a 396-run lead in Vadodara.Delhi, who resumed on 241 for 3, were first driven by a 220-run stand between Rishabh Pant, the wicket-keeper batsman who struck his maiden first-class century, and Nitish Rana, for whom this was a second ton. Both men finished on 146.Milind Kumar and Pradeep Sangwan, who came in at No. 9, then added 125 to swell the lead as Delhi declared on 589 for 8. Sangwan, who also brought up his maiden first-class century, hit eight fours and four sixes in his unbeaten 87-ball 100.

They are four down in the final innings of the match but require only 37 more runs to beat Maharashtra.Chasing a target of 93, they hadnt got a run on the board when they lost the openers Ishan Kishan and Shiv Gautam.

That left a very manageable target for Jharkhand to hunt down; one they could well achieve despite the big-hearted effort from Maharashtras new-ball bowlers Anupam Sanklecha (2 for 20) and Shrikant Mundhe (2 for 22)Vidarbha declared on 272 for 6 after batting out 102 overs in Visakhapatnam. By batting as long as they have, and securing a first-innings lead of 122 runs, they would likely come away with more points than Odisha. Captain Faiz Fazal missed out on a century, caught behind for 99 after more than six hours at the crease. Deepak Behera was Odishas best bowler with 3 for 35 from 19 overs. After the declaration, Odisha had 22 overs to play and their openers Sandeep Pattnaik and Ranjit Singh got through them unscathed to push the score to 74 for 0.Rain thwarted Saurashtras quest to secure a first-innings lead against Rajasthan as only 17.4 overs were possible on the third day in Vizianagaram. Saurashtra, who made 460 courtesy Jaydev Shahs 193, removed Vineet Saxena shortly before play ended, with Rajasthan on 62 for 1. ' ' ' |
