MIRABEL, Quebec – For the second year in a row, Andrew Ranger gave the hometown crowd at Circuit ICAR something to cheer about as the Quebec native roared to the victory Sunday in the Jiffy Lube 100 presented by Snap-On. Cheap Nike Raptors Jerseys . The two-time NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1 champion from Roxton Pond, Quebec, withstood a late restart to go wire-to-wire for the win - his 17th career series victory and 14th on a road course. Ranger had set a track record on the 2.113-mile airport road course Saturday in winning the pole. He appeared to have his No. 27 La Cite De Mirabel Dodge on cruise control as he held command throughout Sundays 30-lap event. Scott Steckly, who started third on the grid, held off teammate L.P. Dumoulin for second at the finish. J.R. Fitzpatrick and Jeff Lapcevich were fourth and fifth. Rounding out the top 10 were D.J. Kennington, Kerry Micks, J.F.

Hi Kerry, Its another day and here we are looking at another dubious hit to the head. In this case Blue Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky elbowed Saku Koivu in the head about a second after he dished off the puck to a teammate, knocking him unconscious. China Raptors Jerseys . Both players have lower body injuries that will keep them out of the lineup until at least January 31, which is the first game they can be activated from IR. http://www.cheapraptorsjerseys.us/ .2 billion agreement with Rogers Communications for the leagues broadcast and multimedia rights. Freakish skill from all four wingersIm looking forward to the freakish things the wingers create in this game of football because it is very important to start their sets of six on a roll. I think its pretty important that these fours wingers play a major part in the outcome on Sunday. Whoever the best two are might also be from the team that wins the game.?Suliasi Vunivalu is the leading tryscorer and he jumped over?Sosaia Feki a few times the last time they met so I think well see a few kicks going to that edge close to the tryline. On the other Storm wing, Marika Koroibete runs extremely hard as does the Sharks Valentine Holmes and I think Feki is a very under-rated winger as well.We probably dont talk about wingers having a huge impact in games but I reckon wingers are more important than centres in the current climate and these four could go a long way to deciding who gets good field position, who scores a try and theyre often the guys that stop the tries.The Sharks in particular will have tough decisions to make because they wont want to kick the ball to Vunivalu or Koroibete on the full so they might be forced to kick it to Cameron Munster which means it goes down the middle of the field but if Im Cooper Cronk I want to kick it to Ben Barba so I can get hold of him and rough him up a bit.Front row battle will lay platform for victoryThe forward battle will be super important. Ill include Paul Gallen and Dale Finucane in that as well. Whoever wins the battle for the middle of the field will win the game. The Storm have got Jesse Bromwich, the best prop in the game, Finucane does a wonderful job and then Andrew Fifita and Gallen will match up against them.I just think it is so important in big games that the front row wins the play-the-balls, one out-muscles their opposing player and you just get a feeling that youre winning that battle of the middle and that leads to more momentum and thats where the tackle is won in the arm-wrestle.Sam Tagataese can play a huge role despite being out for several weeks. I think he just needs to play 20 minutes. If he can play 20 minutes then he is a big body thatll help enormously. I dont think Kurt Capewell will have great impact against the best wrestling side in the competition. The Sharks need big bodies and someone who can cause havoc for the last 15 minutes of the first half and 10 minutes of the second half and his job will be done.The Storm have the most athletic pack in the comppetition. Delon Wright Jersey. Jesse Bromwich has great late footwork, Tohu Harris has great footwork, Kevin Proctor is a ball-playing edge backrower, Finucane carries hard and I think Jordan McLean will be an Origin player if not next year then the year after.Nelson Asofa-Solomona is a huge loss for the Storm. Both packs look so close on paper so the benches will have to make a fair impact and when they had Asofa-Solomona on the bench they had more impact than they get now.Whoever handles occasion best will win NRL Grand FinalCooper Cronk is the best big-game player in the world at the moment - 300 games last week, cool as a cucumber, scores a couple of tries, kicking game was wonderful while Cameron Smith, controls a game better than anyone.For the Sharks, James Maloney was great in game three of Origin, Chad Townsend last week came back from the worst feeling in the world for a footballer after being hooked mid-game, Michael Ennis has played Origin but its really important for the lesser-known players that havent been around this time of year before to step up.I think its probably about handling the build-up and the hype during the week as well. The Sharks had a fan day on Tuesday and the Shires gone totally crazy; its disruption to your normal preparation so the players need to be able to avoid getting excited and playing the game before it even starts.Its about handling the occasion, singing the anthem, soaking up the atmosphere and basically, can you do your job to the best of your ability on Sunday night. You only have to play to your best and youre likely to win. Most of the time I find sides lose Grand Finals rather than the opposition winning the Grand Final because they dont handle the occasion.The Storm are advantaged in this area because they are tucked away in Melbourne and all the media hype down their is around the AFL and having a Melbourne-based side in their big day. Craig Bellamy said the other day that it has been extremely quiet down there - they had a fan day but its madness in the Shire for the Sharks.In saying that, Im hoping and tipping Cronulla to win. I think its their turn, I think theyre due and I think theyve got the best roster theyve probably ever had. Ennis will retire and Gallen and Lewis will probably go next year so this opportunity may not come around again for a while.
