Stephen Myler kicked six penalties as Northampton inflicted an 18-17 Aviva Premiership defeat on Worcester in a poor game at Sixways. David Bakhtiari Jersey .The outside half was successful with six out of seven kicks, with severe ill-discipline costing the home side, who for much of the game were the more creative side.They scored two tries through Dean Hammond and Bryce Heem with Jamie Shilcock converting both and adding a penalty.Prior to the game, Northampton needed only a single try for their 1,000th in the Premiership but they never looked like achieving it.Ben Foden made his 200th appearance for Saints but they started badly as Shillcock kicked a penalty to give Worcester a third-minute lead.Northampton soon replied with a simple Myler penalty before the hosts scored an excellent try.From a ruck inside the opposition 22, Worcester secured possession for Shillcock to send Wynand Olivier through a gap before the centre gave Hammond a simple run-in.The visitors suffered two further setbacks in quick succession when skipper Sam Dickinson was helped off with a leg injury to be replaced by Ben Nutley. Myler was then surprisingly off-target with a straightforward penalty attempt.The night got worse for Saints when experienced scrum-half Lee Dickson left the field with a rib injury as Worcester continued to the be the better side.However, Warriors kept conceding penalties, nine in the first half-hour, which prevented them from capitalising and this allowed a disjointed Northampton to remain in contention.The 10th and 12th penalties saw Myler succeed with two kicks at goal so his side only trailed 10-9 at the end of a first half during which they had been largely outplayed.The home sides ill-discipline continued after the restart and after Ryan Mills was yellow carded, Myler put Saints in front with his fourth penalty after 45 minutes.With Mills still absent, Myler extended the lead with a further penalty but that was all Saints could manage while the centre was in the sin-bin.Worcester brought on Heem for his first game of the season in place of Cooper Vuna with lock Donncha OCallaghan also withdrawn in favour of Andrew Kitchener.Back to 15 men, Worcester regained control and were denied a try by the TMO after a burst from Olivier had put the Saints defence on the back foot.As a result, Northampton still led 15-10 at the end of the third quarter but their line was under constant pressure.In an attempt to stem the tide, they made three substitutions bringing on James Craig, Ethan Waller and Tom Collins to provide fresh legs and it paid dividends as Saints secured some respite with a sixth penalty from Myler.However there was a dramatic finish for when Heem finished off a flowing movement to score, Callum Clark was sin-binned for foul play after the award of the try.Shillcock converted from the touchline and then with the last kick of match he had a penalty from half-way to win the match but his effort faded wide. Aaron Ripkowski Jersey . Fellow centre Pavel Datsyuk remains out because of a concussion. Zetterberg has 11 goals and 19 assists for a team-high 30 points, and Datsyuk has a team-high 12 goals and 11 assists. Mike Daniels Jersey . Emery skated the length of the ice and fought an unwilling Holtby during the third period of the Flyers 7-0 loss Friday night in Philadelphia. He was given 29 penalty minutes, including a game misconduct. But Emery did not face even a disciplinary hearing with NHL senior vice president of player safety Brendan Shanahan because rules 46. http:///...Jersey.html?cat=1291 . PAUL, Minn. Brisbane star Matt Gillett will finally make his comeback from a shoulder injury for the Broncos crucial round 22 NRL match against St George Illawarra on Thursday night at WIN Stadium.The Queensland back-rower has been cleared to return from the injury he suffered in State of Origin II.Gillett passed a fitness test at the Broncos Red Hill base on Wednesday morning.Hes a current Australian player and were glad to have him back. Hes good to go, Broncos coach Wayne Bennett said.The 27-year-old was due to return for the struggling Broncos, who have won just two of their past nine games, against Sydney Roosters last week but was a late withdrawal.Fellow Maroons Sam Thaiday and Josh McGuire return from suspension for Brisbane.The Dragons will be without NSW back-rower Tyson Frizell after he copped a one-match ban at the NRL judiciary on Tuesday night for making contact with referee Chris James in last weeks loss to Canterbury.Joel Thompson will also miss the match after being suspended for one match for a high tackle. Tyrone McCarthy takes his place in coach Paul McGregors side.Uncapped rookie Luciano Leilua has been called into the squad for Frizell.Leilua, brother of Canberra centre Joey, has represented Australia at Schoolboys level as well as NSW inn under-18s in 2014. Jamaal Williams Jersey. Frizell said he remained confident of the Dragons chances despite his unsuccessful judiciary challenge.One hundred per cent we can win it, he said.Thats probably the biggest disappointment for myself, missing out on this week and letting the boys down.Hopefully we can turn our season around and get a win down at home.The Dragons have lost four straight and realistically need to win this to keep their finals hopes intact. They are undefeated this season in Wollongong beating Penrith, North Queensland and Melbourne but the Cowboys and the Storm were minus their State of Origin stars.KEY STATS* The Dragons have a horrible recent record against the Broncos, winning just one of 11 matches since late 2010, and just two of 14 since late 2009.* The Dragons attacking averages for the season are poor, ranking second last in points (13.1), tries (2.3) and linebreaks (2.9). Only the Knights are worse in all three categories.* Despite their form slump, the Broncos average a try for every nine tackles they have inside their opponents 20m line, the best red zone ratio of any team.Source: Fox Sports Stats Cheap NFL JerseysCheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
