or our organization, so lets do the job on the field and make it that way

Wests Tigers coach Jason Taylor believes it would be silly of NSW to pick James Tedesco on the wing for Wednesday weeks State of Origin dead rubber.A white-hot Tedesco continued his undeniable claim for an Origin berth with a starring role on Saturday night in the Tigers 34-26 NRL win over Penrith.Just two days out from Blues coach Laurie Daley naming his team for game three, the Tigers fullback claimed a points decision on Origin rival Matt Moylan in a high-scoring affair.Moylan struck first with involvements in Penriths opening two tries of the match, however Tedesco responded by twice burning fellow Blues hopeful Bryce Cartwright to set up tries either side of halftime.He doesnt need me pushing his barrel anymore, Taylor said post-game.Hes a class act and deserves to be in the NSW team in my opinion.Asked whether Tedesco could play on the wing, he said:That would be a silly decision in my opinion.Compounding the loss for the Panthers is a suspected season-ending knee injury to prop Sam McKendry, who was folded by a Jesse Sue tackle early in the first half and was taken from the field on a stretcher.Looks like an ACL. Were hoping for the best but, at first prognosis, doesnt look good, Panthers coach Anthony Griffin said.Tedesco was assisted by strong outings from Mitchell Moses and Sue, while Cartwright made up for his defensive deficiencies with 10 offloads for the visitors.The win lifts the Tigers to within two points of the top eight, while the Panthers drop to ninth.In front of a crowd of 10,582 at ANZ Stadium, the Panthers led 14-2 at the 24-minute mark when the Tigers poured on four tries in 15 minutes to take a shock eight-point lead into halftime.Jordan Rankin finished off a Tedesco break early in the second stanza to increase the advantage for the home side, who turned away numerous Panthers raids midway through the second half.Veteran hooker Robbie Farah then sealed the win when he backed up a Sue break in the 63rd minute, before Trent Merrin and Isaah Yeo grabbed consolation tries late in the match.Earlier, Penrith winger Josh Mansour opened the scoring with an acrobatic putdown, which was followed by James Fisher-Harris finishing a Tyrone Peachey tap-back just three minutes later.However, the tide turned quickly afterwards, Ava Seumanufagai backing up a Chris Lawrence break in the 32nd minute which was sandwiched between twin Tim Simona efforts.Tedesco set up his first before he intercepted a Moylan pass and ran 60 metres for his second, and then David Nofoaluma gave his team an unlikely lead on the halftime siren.Penriths mid-season recruit Zak Hardaker made his NRL debut with a lively 30-minute cameo in the second half.Griffin said it was his teams worst defensive performance of the season.22 points in 15 minutes just before halftime basically ripped the game out of our control. It was hard from there. It was our worst night for us this year defensively - just too loose, he said. Kyrie 3 Red . Cote was eligible to become a free agent Feb. 15.

CHICAGO -- While a bunch of teams are fighting for playoff spots all over baseball, the Chicago Cubs are feeling their way through rare territory.The Cubs clinched the NL Central title a full three weeks before their first playoff game, giving the organization plenty of time to rest players and analyze possible postseason opponents, but also making for a tricky stretch when it comes to staying sharp when there isnt as much at stake.After the Cubs dropped three of four against the Brewers last weekend, manager Joe Maddon met with his hitters before Monday nights 5-2 victory over Cincinnati and talked to them about making the most of the final part of the season.Its unusual being in this position like we are right now, Maddon said after the meeting. So youve got two weeks of baseball, major league baseball, left in September, so lets work on some stuff. Lets work on things that we need to work on individually or as a group. Like I said, not unlike a spring training situation, while within the context were just going out there playing the same game, were trying to win this game.The Cubs win over the Reds and the Nationals loss at Miami made it a seven-game lead for Chicago over Washington in the race for home-field advantage throughout the NL playoffs. The Mets, Cardinals and Giants are fighting for the two wild cards, making one of them the likely division series opponent for Maddon & Co.I probably will watch Washington more than anything right now, Maddon said. Thats the one that were shooting for, is to have the best record.While the wild cards likely will go down to the final few days of the season, the Cubs will have organizational meetings Tuesday and Wednesday to discuss possible playoff matchups and how they might line up for each series. They have scouts watching each potential postseason opponent.Each team presents its oown set of challenges and might have roster implications one way or another, too, president of baseball operations Theo Epstein said.ddddddddddddhe Cubs also are planning for their four-day break between the end of the regular season and their playoff opener on Oct. 7, which Maddon also covered in his meeting with the hitters.Thats a long time, so we have to really get our minds right over the next couple, three weeks to really be prepared properly for that first game, Maddon said, and I wanted it to start today.Epstein said the Cubs are considering having a simulated game during the four-day break before Game 1 of the Division Series, providing a chance for the starters and relievers to get some work in and for the hitters to see live pitching.The 42-year-old Epstein has never been in a situation like this before, with the team clinching so early, but said he likes it compared to the alternative.I think its what you make of it, he said. To me, its a lot better than having to push your guys extra hard and put more innings on guys arms and not giving them enough rest and then maybe waking up and being worn down.Chicago had to wait until Sept. 25 to clinch its 2015 wild card, and then made it all the way to the NL Championship Series before it was swept by New York.The early clinch also allows the Cubs to go as slow as they want with any players with health issues. Maddon said outfielder Jorge Soler, who left Fridays 5-4 victory over the Brewers with tightness on his right side, could be available to pinch hit on Tuesday. Key reliever Pedro Strop, who is coming back from knee and groin injuries, is on track to pitch in a simulated game soon.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenap ' ' '
