Cheap Air Max Shoes Australia .The out-of-favour Farah was immediately linked with a move to the Shire following Michael Ennis shock decision this week to retire at the end of the NRL season.And Bird, who played with Farah in two State of Origin games earlier this month, said the incumbent Blues rake could be an ideal replacement for the departing Ennis.If Robbie came here, I think hed be a good asset to the team and hed do his job and put in 100 per cent each week, Bird said of Farah.I did play with Robbie and hes a good bloke but thats not up to me if hes going to come here.Thats up to the coaching staff and (CEO Lyall Gorman) and (football manager Phil Moss). If theyre going to go that way, then they go that way.Sharks and Blues teammate Wade Graham wasnt as enthusiastic with the idea, but admitted the 32-year-old Farah remained one of the elite hookers in the game.I think its a bit too early to be talking about other players. Were just focused on playing footy and no doubt (coach Shane Flanagan) and the recruitment guys will look after that, he said.Robbies a good player. Hes one of the best hookers playing in the game, he has been through his whole career. You always enjoy playing with good players.Farah was named to play his second reserve grade game in as many weeks on Saturday however was ruled out of this weeks clash with a calf injury.Both Bird and Graham conceded they were stunned to learn of Ennis desire to pull the plug on his career, claiming the 32-year-old couldve played on a few more years.I thought he was going to go another year. He mightve gone another two years maybe, Bird said.He probably couldve played on, but he wants to be a dad and Im happy for him.Graham also supported Ennis decision to retire.Like everyone who follows the game, ever since Mick has come to the club, hes played some of the best footy, if not the best footy of his career, he said.It definitely came out of the blue for us, shocked us all. But when you sit down with him and he goes through his reasons behind it, its an easy decision to support for him.

"I was fortunate to play many years at this level with a great organization and unbelievable teammates," said Hejduk in a statement.MADISON, Miss. -- Woody Austins spent the past few years living the life of a golf nomad, not knowing when his next opportunity to play on the PGA Tour would come. Those days are over for a while. The 49-year-old Austin won the Sanderson Farms Championship on Sunday for his first PGA Tour victory since 2007, beating Cameron Beckman and Daniel Summerhays with an 8-foot birdie putt on the first hole of a playoff. "Its been a long road and a long time," Austin said. "Now Ive got a job again." Austin is the eighth-oldest winner in PGA Tour history and the oldest since Fred Funk won at 50 in 2007. The victory gave him a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour and a spot in the PGA Championship -- not to mention a $540,000 paycheque. Not bad for a guy who hadnt even made a cut on the tour this year. Austin came into the final round two shots behind Summerhays and Nicholas Thompson, but made up ground with a 5-under 67 to finish at 20-under 268. His final round didnt start particularly well -- he bogeyed No. 2 -- but he recovered with an eagle on No. 5 and birdies on Nos. 6 and 7 to vault back into contention. "My iron play is my strength and it was there this week," said Austin, who has four career victories. "I was able to manoeuvr the ball around, get the ball close to the flag. The most important part of the game is putting and I putted good this week, plain and simple." Beckman and Summerhays both birdied No. 18 to match Austin, and Beckman missed a 5-foot putt that would have forced a second playoff hole. Beckman shot 67, and Summerhays had a 69. Summerhays and Thompson started the day tied for the lead, two shots ahead the pack. But Thompson fell out of contention quickly with a double bogey on No. 5 and a bogey on No. 8. He finished fourth at 18 under, two shots back after a 71. Summerhays moved into the lead with a birdie on No. 9, but made bogey on 14 and fell behind until making birdies on both Nos. 17 and 18. It was the second straight week Summerhays failed to close a tournament after having at least a share of the lead on the final day. His ddrive on the playoff hole -- the 532-yard, par-5 18th -- found the bunker on the right side of the fairway and he hit into the water on his second shot.

"Its tough to swallow for sure, but again, its my first playoff and there are all these new firsts," Summerhays said. "Hopefully I can continue to learn and grow." Summerhays praised Austin for making clutch putts in the final round. "Youve got to be kidding me -- hes 49 years old and kicking all our butts," Summerhays said. "Hats off to him." Austin wasnt the only veteran making a move on the final day. Beckman, a 43-year-old, recovered from a 72 in the opening round to post a 64, 65 and 67 in the final three rounds. He was tied for the lead at various times Sunday. He drilled an impressive 15-foot birdie putt to force the playoff, but his 5-foot putt on the playoff hole missed to the right. Billy Andrade charged up the leaderboard with a 65 to tie for fifth at 17 under. The 49-year-old started the day seven shots off the lead but climbed quickly by shooting 7 under through his first 11 holes. He finished with seven straight pars. It was the first day of the tournament that didnt involve a weather delay. But there was plenty of heat and humidity -- as well as some wind for the first time all week -- as players dealt with a soft course that received more than an inch of rain overnight. Austin managed it all and now has some decisions to make. He will turn 50 in six months, making him eligible for the Champions Tour. But Austin didnt sound like a guy ready to give up life on the PGA Tour. "Ive always told everybody I want to play out here," Austin said. "Im one of those people who doesnt like a number. I dont like the idea that people say, Oh, youre 50 years old, youre not good enough to play anymore and need to go play with the old guys ... For the past five years, Ive still felt that I have the ability to compete." He proved it on Sunday. ' ' '
