y late on purpose just
Fremantle will be aiming to derail West Coasts top-four hopes when the two teams lock horns in Sundays western derby at Domain Stadium. John Riggins Jersey .The Dockers are out of the finals mix after snaring just three wins from 18 games.Although the disappointment of a failed season remains a sore point for the Dockers, its at least allowed them to enter derby XLIV with nothing to lose.The situation is vastly different for West Coast, whose top-four hopes will be virtually extinguished if they lose to the Dockers.Would we like to knock them over? Yeah, Dockers coach Ross Lyon said.Would we like to be a road bump for them and derail them a little bit? Yes.But talks cheap, and weve learnt emotion doesnt get it done.Fremantle entered 2016 as one of the flag favourites after winning last years minor premiership.But their inability to adapt to a new attacking game plan - combined with injuries to key players - have consigned the Dockers to one of their worst ever seasons.Barring a dramatic form reversal, Fremantle are likely to finish in 16th spot on the table.And they could be on the end of some heavy losses over the final four rounds of the season when they take on premiership hopefuls West Coast, Adelaide (home), GWS (away), and the Bulldogs (home).Instead of fearing that tough run, Lyon wants his team to view the stretch as an opportunity to shape the top eight.West Coast loom as the most winnable game over that period given their patchy form.The Eagles suffered an upset 19-point loss to Collingwood last week, and they were well below their best during a recent five-match winning run against sides lower than them on the ladder.West Coast have been written off as a legitimate premiership threat by most AFL experts, but Lyon remains wary of last years grand finalists.Were not being fooled (into thinking) theyre out of form, Lyon said.To win eight out of your last (11) in this competition is elite.Fremantle have been bolstered by the return of ruckman Aaron Sandilands (ribs) and goalsneak Hayden Ballantyne (fractured cheekbone), but defender Zac Dawson misses through suspension.West Coast will welcome back star ruckman Nic Naitanui, who has missed the past six weeks after undergoing surgery to relieve Achilles tendon pain.Defender Eric Mackenzie has been dropped for the second time this season, while Sam Butler (groin), and Liam Duggan (calf) were forced out.Malcolm Karpany was axed.The Dockers will be desperate to bounce back from last weeks 90-point loss to Sydney, which doubled as Matthew Pavlichs 350-game milestone. Doug Williams Jersey . -- Sergey Tolchinksy scored his second goal of the game 3:56 into overtime as the Sault Ste. Will Compton Jersey . -- The Portland Timbers and Real Salt Lake played to a 0-0 tie Saturday night that left the top of the Western Conference standings unchanged. http:///...ugh-redskins-jersey/ . Calgary scored on the first shift, and Michael Cammalleri scored twice as the Flames cruised to a 5-2 win over the Washington Capitals on Saturday. Felipe Massa does not understand how Fernando Alonso escaped punishment at the U.S. Grand Prix after making two questionable overtaking manoeuvres towards the end of the race.Alonso made contact with Massa as he passed him on the inside of Turn 15, resulting in a puncture for the Williams driver and putting an end to his chances of finishing higher than seventh. The incident was investigated following the race, but after both drivers put forward their arguments the stewards decided not to take any action. Alonso later passed Carlos Sainz by running off the track, but in that instance the stewards felt no need to open an investigation.Speaking in Mexico, Massa could not believe that neither incident warranted a penalty.I spoke together with the stewards, yeah, Massa said. My only thought is that he [Alonso] had good friends there, to be honest. If you look from the top it looks amazing what he did. If you look from his inside camera he was far away. He was not close enough to try to overtake. He didnt brake. When he braked he locked the wheels and just hit me.If I was not there he was never going to go through the corner. Never. Which definitely the stewards need to evaluate, need to have the decision. Sometimes it is a little bit inconsistent, sometimes not. Maybe some times it is correct or not. But then he had another one [with Sainz] that he was outside brakinng, he braked too late. Dexter Manley Jersey. He went off the track and everybody is happy.So at least one of these two incidents he was supposed to get a penalty -- like many other drivers have by doing that, or some other drivers didnt by doing even a little bit too much. So its inconsistent.Alonso, meanwhile, stood by his move, saying he took a risk and was lucky also not to suffer a puncture on his car.No its a corner where you cannot see the inside or the apex. You brake more or less in the middle part of the circuit and the apex is way on the left, so its a corner that is a blind entry sometimes. The movement and the commitment that you have to do is quite big because you know the risks that are on this manoeuvre.But I braked very late on purpose just because of that, because I wanted to put the car alongside him or in front of him because if not then he cant see me. So I braked very late for that reason. Unfortunately we touched each other, he had a puncture, I had a slow puncture as well with a tyre rim broken, so very, very lucky.When asked if Massa was unhappy in the stewards room, Alonso said: No. Its a race incident and everyone has maybe similar opinions or at least the stewards have that opinion so there is not much to talk about.
