Tom Trbojevic is putting real heat on coach Trent Barrett to dump Brett Stewart from the Manly No.1 jersey as the club legend struggles for form and fitness.Deputising for Stewart at fullback, Trbojevic gave Barrett real food for thought as he guided the Sea Eagles to a drought-breaking 36-6 NRL win over St George Illawarra on Monday night.Trbojevic sparked his side in attack, setting up Jorge Taufuas first try with a sweetly-timed cut-out ball and saving another with some great cover defence up the other end.His five-star display led Parramatta legend Peter Sterling to declare that it was time for Barrett to bite the bullet and shift the 19-year-old into the custodian role.Stewart is being hindered by a niggling knee injury and Barrett admitted he was no certainty to return after the bye against Warriors.The 31-year-old is in the midst of a 10-game scoring drought - the longest of his career.The stats show Stewart has been a shadow of his former self, accumulating just one linebreak and six tackle busts this year according to Fox Sports Stats.Barrett said the two-time premiership winner would be afforded his allegiance but admitted that Trbojevic was making a compelling case.Brett by his own admission has been struggling with a little bit of injury, Barrett said.I would have played him tonight if he was fully fit. He is a legend of the club and when Snakes 100 per cent, he can do things on a football field that no one else can.I think he deserves for us to show him the respect that hes earned.I hope Snake can overcome the niggling knee injury hes got at the moment. When hes not there, weve got Tom and hes a terrific player of the future.Ill cross that bridge when it comes.Trbojevic was on Monday named as a development player for the NSW squad for State of Origin III and will join the team in camp at Coffs Harbour on Tuesday.And while hes been earmarked as a representative player of the future, he hosed down talk he was putting pressure on Stewart.I dont think so mate, Snakes our No.1, Trbojevic said.Hes been Manlys No.1 for 10 years, hes been one of the best players ever to play in the Manly No.1 jersey so Im certainly not pushing his spot.Balenciaga Sneakers Online Shop .

Balenciaga Sneakers For Sale Cheap .B. -- The Baie-Comeau Drakkar took over sole possession of first place atop the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League on Thursday with their sixth straight win.NEW YORK -- It is called football, after all. And in Week 1 of the NFL season, the kicking game has been critical, from the season opener on Thursday night through the finale of Sundays first full day of action.Matt Prater knocked his 43-yard field goal through to lift Detroit past Indianapolis, his 13th winning or tying field goal with under 4:00 to play in the fourth quarter or in overtime.Chandler Catanzaro missed his potential winner from 47 after a bad snap, and New England escaped at Arizona.Mike Nugent came through for Cincinnati against his former Jets team, and Graham Gano failed for Carolina vs. Denver.Five kickers botched 33-yard extra points, though four of their teams won. The Jets Nick Folk, whod never missed a PAT in his 10-year NFL career, saw his string of 312 straight makes end. Plus, he had a field goal blocked in a 23-22 defeat.I feel like I let the team down, Folk admitted. If we make the extra point and the field goal, they need a touchdown at the end. That would have put us up six, so its just frustrating from my end.He gets an early chance to make up for it: We have a game in four days (at Buffalo), so we have to bounce back pretty quick.No kicker had more to bounce back from since last season than Minnesotas Blair Walsh. He infamously shanked a 27-yard field goal on the final play of a wild-card game against Seattle in January, and had to live with that memory until Sunday.Then he missed two field goals and an extra point at Nashville before snapping out of his funk and connecting on four field goals in a 25-16 win.Its nice to bounce back with four field goals, and we won the game, said Walsh, who was supported by coach Mike Zimmer afterward. They were important kicks. But, man, you want to take the drama out of it, thats for sure.There was enough kicking drama this week to fill a soap opera. Not all of it involved placekickers, either.Catanzaros wide-left boot came after a bad snap from rookie Kameron Canaday. That sparked the usual criticism from afar of the Cardinals for saving money on the position.Jaguars punter Brad Nortman landed consecutive kicks at the Green Bay 3 that flipped the field and helped Jacksonville take a 10-7 lead. Those punts didnt seem so significant at games end in Green Bays 27-23 win, but they helped keep the Jags in it early.A 17-yarder by Chargers rookie Drew Kaser certainly played a major role in San Diego blowing a 21-point lead at Kansas City and fallingg in overtime.dddddddddddd The Chiefs took over at the San Diego 42 and marched to the tying touchdown.Chargers coach Mike McCoy didnt exactly distinguish himself by opting to have Josh Lambo try a 54-yard field goal on fourth-and-2 while up 27-10 earlier in the fourth quarter.No good.McCoy had been told by special teams coach Craig Aukerman that Lambo was crushing the ball.He had all the confidence in the world before the game, McCoy said of Lambo, so I had all of the confidence in the world, too.Saints rookie kicker Wil Lutz, a late signee after spending the preseason in Baltimore, was 2 for 4 on field goals and made his four extra points in a 35-34 loss to Oakland. And its hard to blame him for missing a desperation 61-yarder on the final play.Somewhat embarrassingly, though, Lutz and holder Thomas Morstead began hugging in celebration on that last kick before it faded short.For all of the made and missed field goals, the sublime and sickly punts, possibly the most noteworthy footwork in Week 1 came on kickoffs.With touchbacks now coming out to the 25-yard line instead of the 20, there is added incentive to pooch the kickoffs and have them drop inside the 5.Naturally, it was 2015 All-Pro Stephen Gostkowski doing the brilliant kicking for the Patriots.Four of his six kickoffs didnt enter the end zone, and Arizonas final drive started at the 8 (including a Cardinals penalty).Our kickoff team, we went into the game feeling like we had to make some field position plays in the kicking game, coach Bill Belichick said. You dont want to put their offense on a short field. If you can pile a few more yards onto the drive, hopefully it works in your favor. I know there was a lot of sentiment to eliminate that play, but those are the kinds of plays that are good strategy plays in football.Certainly, we had an opportunity to kick it out of the end zone on the last kickoff, but with a good field goal kicker, a good offense, good quarterback, we try to put them on as long a field as we could.Yep, keeping the foot in football.---AP Pro Football Writers Teresa M.
