Its taken some 22 rounds but finally the AFL has found a high-profile supporter of the pre-finals bye.The league, concerned with the trend of clubs resting players en masse in the final round, this year introduced a week off between the regular season and finals.A recent poll indicated all 18 coaches were against the post-season bye but Western Bulldogs mentor Luke Beveridge has since changed his tune.Beveridges new stance isnt a result of the leagues push for a celebration of football week but the Bulldogs injury list.The extra week off will give injured stand-in skipper Easton Wood, plus star midfielders Tom Liberatore and Jack Macrae, a fighting chance of being fit for the clubs first final.When it was initially floated, I liked the idea of continuity, Beveridge said on Tuesday.Survival of the fittest and last man standing ... (but now) out of all the teams in the top eight, it suits us a little bit better.Were really optimistic we might get him (Wood) for the first final.Jacks more of a chance than Tom but both of them are a chance.Geelong coach Chris Scott expects the experiment wont last beyond 2016.My suspicion is this will be a one and only, Scott told Fox Footy.Wed prefer it wasnt there.The AFLs position was that they didnt want players rested en masse before the finals.I never saw the problem in that - the integrity issue.I know some of the key decision makers at the AFL love continuity in the season. This seems to be a lack of continuity at the most-important time.The fixture tweak means two sides will enter their preliminary final having played just one game in the past three weeks.Many players, pundits and coaches have speculated that the reward of finishing in the top four will be diminished as a result.Its going to be interesting to see what we do. Weve got (Adelaide high performance guru) Brett Burton and the coaches already planning, Adelaide skipper Taylor Walker told Fox Footy.Im sure most teams will probably train hard.Try to simulate a bit of game awareness ... so your contact and physical stuff are up to speed when you need to play the week after.Nike Shoes Black Friday China .

Wholesale Nike Shoes Black Friday . I cant pinpoint a date, but I do remember a player from my youth. Brian Downing was with the Chicago White Sox at a time when I listened to every game I possibly could on the radio. That particular season the late great Harry Caray was calling the White Sox games.Hull City and Crystal Palace share the points after a thrilling 3-3 draw at the KC Stadium on Saturday.Crystal Palace started well before Hull, experimenting with a 3-5-2 system, grew into the game and took a deserved lead just before the half-hour mark. It was a controversial goal though as Robert Snodgrass, who was already on a yellow, should have seen a second for a dive in the box but instead his fall to the floor conned the ref who pointed to the spot. To add to Palaces frustration, the Scottish international got back to his feet and converted the penalty.Karma then struck early in the second half after 52. Wilfried Zaha skipped into the box before fittingly Snodgrass chopped him to the ground and Christian Benteke this time converted from 12 yards. Both sides deserved credit in the second half as they went in search of a winner, annd it was Palace who struck first on 70 minutes when Zaha showed magically feet before firing a bullet past a helpless David Marshall.ddddddddddddThe visitors were not ahead for long though as just two minutes later Adama Diomande turned his marker, knocked the ball through the legs of Scott Dann, and kept his cool to level things at 2-2. It was then Hull who again took the lead on 78 minutes thanks to another fine goal, this time from Jake Livermore, before a former Tigers player had the final say with just minutes left.Frazier Campbell, who was instrumental when the Tigers were promoted to the Premier League for the first time in 2008, headed home a curling cross from Zaha to share the points on 88 minutes.
