Sydney coach John Longmire says its time for everyone to move on after his co-skipper Kieren Jack ended a tumultuous week with a key role in the Swans 38-point AFL triumph over Geelong.Jack was thrust into the spotlight on the eve of his 200th game when a family spat also involving his girlfriend, his mother and his father, former rugby league great Garry Jack, became public knowledge.But far from retreating into his shell, the combative Jack burst out of the blocks with the opening goal of the match at Simonds Stadium.He ended the night with a game-high three goals and 24 possessions before being joined in an emotional post-match huddle by his younger brother and teammate Brandon, who was an emergency for the clash at Simonds Stadium.Kieren went through a tough week, Longmire said.Its been well written and documented and I think everyone is over it to be honest.I think we all need to move on from it.The players obviously supported him and Brandon in a really strong way but in the end I think its time that everyone moved on.The Swans dominated the midfield battle and also got great returns from a number of their youngest players including defenders Callum Mills and Aliir Aliir.From the first bounce I thought we played a really good, strong brand of footy, Longmire said.They came at us a bit in the second quarter but I thought our leaders were sensational and our kids were super tonight.Someone told me before we came in that we had four (players who had played) under 10 games and eight under 30.Aliirs ability to hold down a key defensive position allowed Longmire to keep regular fullback Ted Richards in the forward line for the entirety of the match.We were hoping by now that Sam Reid would be back but hes not and with Kurt (Tippett) out as well we thought we needed another tall, particularly down here on a longer ground, said Longmire.Ted hasnt played a lot of football recently as a forward but he did as a young fella.He knows his stuff and he played a role for us.He had three shots at goal and was just another marking target in our forward line.The Swans will draw level on points with ladder leaders Hawthorn if they win Thursday nights huge clash at the SCG.Malik Hooker Jersey .05 million next season unless Graham and the Saints subsequently agree on a long-term deal. The designation was released Monday after the deadline passed for NFL teams to use franchise or transition tags on players becoming free agents. Reggie Wayne Colts Jersey . Coach Tom Thibodeau says the former MVP will probably start travelling with the team in the next few weeks. Rose tore the meniscus in his right knee at Portland in November and was ruled out for the remainder of the season by the Bulls. http://www.officialindianapoliscoltspro.com/Margus-hunt-colts-jersey/ .Y. -- Syracuse has turned up the defence at the right time all season, and when High Point threatened to pull off a monumental upset the second-ranked Orange did what they do best with their quick hands and savvy play. Pat McAfee Colts Jersey .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up. Rock Ya-Sin Jersey . The defending champion beat Gael Monfils of France 7-6 (6), 6-3, while second-seeded Andy Murray of Britain dispatched Edouard Roger-Vasselin, also of France, 6-3, 6-3. Making his first appearance since injuring his wrist a month ago, Del Potro had difficulty with his service games in the first set. Jaromir Jagr wants to extend his NHL career, and his agent said some teams are "very interested" in his 41-year-old client. Jagr might have to wait a while, but the leagues active scoring leader is hardly the only free agent still looking for a new job this weekend. "He definitely still wants to play and there is some interest in him," Jagrs agent, Petr Svoboda, told The Associated Press on Saturday. "I think its going to take some time, but you never know for sure because there are three teams that are very interested." Svoboda declined to say which teams wanted to sign Jagr. J.P. Barry, who represents two of the top free agents, Daniel Cleary and Mason Raymond, also expected a relatively slower pace of moves. "Weve touched based with several teams, and many of them are being patient at this point," Barry said Saturday. "Weve got options for (Cleary and Raymond), but were in a holding pattern with each of them because I think everyone is taking a breath this weekend. "Ive been through about 15 of these, and there is always a frenzy of moves then a pause to reassess and then a second wave. Its tough to predict when that second wave will happen, so were always on call when teams are ready." Day 1 of the free agency flurry on Friday included dozens of deals, including Jarome Iginla signing a one-year contract worth as much as $6 million with Boston. The Bruins almost acquired the six-time All-Star late last season when Pittsburgh got him from Calgary at the trade deadline. Nathan Horton cashed in on his second strong post-season performance for the Bruins with a $37.1 million, seven-year contract in Columbus. Daniel Alfredsson made perhaps the most surprising move. The 40-year-old forward is taking what might be his last shot at winning the Stanley Cup with the Detroit Red Wings, jilting the Ottawa Senators after being the face of the franchise. The Senators tried to bounce back by making a bold trade for Anaheim forward Bobby Ryan in exchange for a pair of promising players and a first-round draft pick. On Saturday, the second day NHL teams could sign free agents, the pickings were slimmer. Several top-tier players were taken off the market by teams that agreed to and signed deals following two days of ttalks.dddddddddddd St. Louis agreed to a one-year deal with veteran forward Derek Roy, pending a physical. The 30-year-old Roy split last season between the Dallas Stars and Vancouver Canucks and finished with seven goals and 21 assists. Among the other relatively notable names still available Saturday included Mikhail Grabovski, Ilya Bryzgalov, Tim Thomas, Damien Brunner, Toni Lydman, Brad Boyes and Brenden Morrow. Teemu Selanne is an unrestricted free agent, too, but no one expects the 43-year-old Finnish Flash to leave the Anaheim Ducks if he chooses to keep playing in North America. Ducks general manager Bob Murray plans to contact Selanne next week to find out if he is close to making a decision on returning or retiring. Senators general manager Bryan Murray, though, was among the many shocked when Alfredsson said he was ready to leave the only franchise he has played for in his 17-season NHL career. "He indicated winning a Stanley Cup was an opportunity he couldnt pass up," Murray said. "He told me the two teams he was talking to. He told me he thought they were in a position ahead of us to make that happen." While Alfredsson could have stayed in Ottawa to make more than the $5.5 million he will be paid next season by the Red Wings to chase the Cup, Horton is leaving a championship-contending team to be well-compensated by a franchise in Columbus that is without a post-season win in its 12 seasons. "This is a team on the rise with great players, and Im looking forward to being a part of it," Horton said. Jagr, a five-time scoring champion and former NHL MVP, was able to continue his career during the lockout-shortened season when the Dallas Stars gave him a $4.55 million, one-year contract last summer. After Jagr had 14 goals and 26 points in 34 games for the Stars, showing he could still produce, Dallas dealt him to the Bruins. He had nine points in 11 regular-season games with Boston and 10 assists in 22 post-season games. He didnt have a goal in the playoffs but made key plays that didnt show up on the score sheet. Jagr teamed with Mario Lemieux to help lead the Penguins win a pair of Stanley Cup championships as a teenager in his first two NHL seasons in 1991 and 1992, and was the league MVP in 1999. ' ' '
