RIO DE JANEIRO -- The Olympic Games has a reputation for producing the unpredictable but the womens sevens went to form. Australia were the best side over the three days and deserved winners of sevens first ever gold at the Olympics but they were pushed hard by the Portia Woodman-inspired New Zealand.At Australias forefront was Charlotte Caslick, who ended up with seven tries. She was completely brilliant in orchestrating play and then showing a great ability to finish running up an impressive try tally. Emilee Cherry was also in sensational form but this was no group of individuals. Across the 12 sides weve seen over the last three days, Australias work with the ball was on a superior level and their ability to shift the point of attack was quicker and much more ruthless than their competitors.Only New Zealand came close in this aspect of the game but Australia, who won this seasons World Rugby Sevens Series, had the wonderful ability to turn possession and territory into points at key times.Australia had plenty of stars making up their gold medal-winning elect, but New Zealands Woodman, the current World Rugby player of the year, was a sensation at the Deodoro Stadium as she ran in 10 tries over the three days. She plays like Bryan Habana in his pomp: the odd outside gap is exploited and then ruthlessly capitalised on as the opposition are left grasping at the smallest thread of her kit or at useless thin air. There were other standout players in the Kiwi team like Kayla McAlister but Australias all court style of the proved too much in the final.The Black Ferns wouldve fancied their chances for gold. They eased through the pool stages and then survived a scare to beat the U.S. in the quarterfinals. Come the semifinals they exposed Great Britains ill-discipline to win 25-7 but couldnt get across the line in the final.For Australia, they always seemed in control. They breezed through their opening matches -- beating Colombia and Fiji -- and then had the scare against the U.S. where they drew 12 apiece. It was the wake-up call they needed and they eased through the quarterfinal against Spain and then dispatched eventual bronze medal winners Canada 17-5 with confidence in the semifinal.And then they pushed on in the final with the brilliant Caslick orchestrating play as they won 24-17 to cue scenes of delirium.They were worthy winners but the last three days will have widespread ramifications for the rest of the womens game. It was a wonderful tournament, packed with skills and thrilling rugby; anyone who saw it could not have helped but get caught up in the whole occasion. The hope is this will be the catalyst for the sport to head to new markets and inspire new players.Here in Rio, the Brazilian crowd embraced the play but one huge error of misjudgement from the organisers was to sell separate tickets for morning and then afternoon sessions rather than one for a whole day of festivities. It gave the tournament little chance to play in front of a capacity crowd and when you take into account the transport issues in Rio de Janeiro, let alone the huge recession this country is going through, then the half-full ground was to be expected.It was a shame but this tournament will leave a lasting legacy here. World Rugby have put into place the building blocks to leave a sustainable plan to grow playing numbers here while the brilliant Argentinean Agustin Pichot, the current vice-chairman of World Rugby, will ensure there is no tail off in interest.For the victors, they will go down in the annals as the fourth gold medal-winners for Australia at the 2016 Games. They are deserved champions, played brilliantly throughout and will hope to inspire a new generation back home. Cheap Air Vapormax .

Nike Vapormax Plus Wholesale .25 million option on reliever Jose Veras. ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Kerry Hyder is humble, not bitter. Motivated, not satisfied.Only the reigning Super Bowl MVP, Von Miller of the Denver Broncos, has more sacks this season than Hyder, a player few had heard of a year ago. The defensive end has five sacks and has been one of the few bright spots for the Detroit Lions (1-3) so far.Hyder quietly waited his turn to get a chance to play in the NFL, going undrafted in 2014 and spending nearly two seasons on practice squads with the New York Jets and Lions before getting his shot. He is making the most of an opportunity that came about because Ezekiel Ansah has missed much of the season with a sprained left ankle.Hyder insisted he never doubted his ability to play in the league.It was just a matter of time, Hyder said Wednesday.Hyder speaks softly with a gentle smile, but practices hard and plays with relentless effort to make up for his lack of imposing size or blazing speed. The 6-foot-2, 270-pound Hyder understands why he was not among the 256 players taken in the 2014 NFL draft after he had two sacks as a senior at Texas Tech.Im not 6-5. I dont have the measureables that people look for, he said. A player like me just needs a chance to get in to show that you can make plays at this level. It was hard. Sometimes I would get anxious and wonder why I wasnt getting a shot. My mom and dad would always tell me to enjoy the process. My dad would remind me there are a bunch of people fighting for those practice squad spots so make them earn it if theyre going to take your spot.The Rex Ryan-led Jets gave him his first NFL job, putting him on their practice squad two years ago.When the season was over, Rex wasnt there anymore andd it was clearly time for me to find a better situation, Hyder said.ddddddddddddHyders second chance came last year in Detroit and he took advantage. He was regularly recognized for helping the team prepare for opponents as the look team player of the week.He got it several weeks, Lions coach Jim Caldwell said. And, he probably couldve gotten it almost every week.Caldwell and his coaches noticed Hyder was in the backfield a lot so they moved him from defensive tackle to end and asked him to lose some weight. It has worked out for both parties.Hyder is the first player to open a season for the Lions with a sack in four straight games since William Gay did it in 1983. When Detroit hosts the NFC East-leading Philadelphia Eagles (3-0) on Sunday, one of Hyders former teammates will be thrilled to see him in uniform on a game day for a change.Im glad that Kerry Hyder finally gets the respect hes due, Eagles linebacker Stephen Tulloch said. Hes a guy that wears number 61. Nobody thought he would make the team.Even though Hyders spot on the team is secure, he plans to maintain his pace as a pass-rusher for a team that desperately needs it with Ansah and linebacker DeAndre Levy nursing injuries.I just want to keep it going, Hyder said. I dont want to dwell on what has happened in the last game or the game before that. If I keep playing hard, the stats will come.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Larry Lage at http://www.twitter.com/larrylage and follow his work at http://bigstory.ap.org/content/larry-lage Jerseys NFL China Cheap Adidas NHL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys From China Cheap MLB Jerseys Wholesale China Jerseys NFL Jerseys China Discount Soccer Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys China China NCAA Jerseys Cheap Cheap Nike Dolphins Jerseys Cheap Nike Patriots Jerseys Cheap Nike Jets Jerseys Cheap Nike Bengals Jerseys Cheap Nike Browns Jerseys Cheap Nike Steelers Jerseys Cheap Nike Texans Jerseys Cheap Nike Colts Jerseys Cheap Nike Jaguars Jerseys Cheap Nike Titans Jerseys Cheap Nike Broncos Jerseys ' ' '
