Sydney Roosters win over premiers North Queensland hasnt restored respectability to Bondi, star back-rower Boyd Cordner believes.The Roosters claimed just their third win of 2016 on Sunday, defeating the Cowboys 22-10 in round 23.It was a performance that showed what could have been for the Roosters, who will miss the NRL finals for the first time this season under coach Trent Robinson.However straight-talking NSW star Cordner said the Roosters still had some way to go to earn back the respect they once had on the back of three successive minor premierships under Robinson and the 2013 title.We havent earned back that respect to tell you the truth, probably not, we dont deserve that just yet, Cordner told AAP.We have been really inconsistent. It is only five wins, it is not enough to warrant respect. We know that. It is about being a consistent footy team all year and I dont think we have put back-to-back games together.The win over the Cowboys was one of the few times this year, the Roosters star trio of Cordner, Mitchell Pearce and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves have been on the field at the same time, due to injury and suspension.It has been pretty frustrating we havent been able to have that luxury other sides have had. We have only had our full team on the park three or four times which is really disappointing, Cordner said.But no excuses, we should have been lot better than we were at the start of the year.It is our fault the position we are in, no one elses.The Roosters face St George Illawarra, Cronulla and Brisbane over the final three rounds.We just want to finish off the year really well and get some momentum into next year, Cordner said.It is the way things are. It is frustrating. But you cant dwell on it. We can only control what is in front of us and we are looking forward to that.If we can win a few games and finish off the year well it will be good for our young blokes confidence knowing we can mix it with the best.China Jerseys Wholesale . - Connor McDavid scored 53 seconds into overtime as the Erie Otters came from behind to defeat the visiting Guelph Storm 4-3 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action.

When we race each other, we bring each other to a different level.Phelps led from start to finish, but Lochte was right with him all the way. In fact, he seemed to pull even midway through the final lap, but the most decorated athlete in Olympic history managed to get to the wall in 1 minute, 55.91 seconds.Lochte was next at 1:56.22 and had no complaints about the consolation prize: his only individual race at the Olympics.I knew going into this race it was definitely going to be a dogfight to the end, Lochte said. Its been a long journey, but the journeys not over. We still have another month to get ready and show the world that the U.S. is number one.Lochte, an 11-time medalist, injured his groin on the very first day of the meet, struggled in his next few races and was down to his final chance to get a swim of his own at the Summer Games.Now, thats out of the way, which means Phelps and Lochte will get another crack at each other in South America.As a three-time defending gold medalist in the 200 IM, Phelps will be the favorite.But he knows Lochte wont be far behind, especially with a month to get over the groin issue.I dont know of another person in this world who brings out the best in me like he does, said Phelps, who has 18 golds and 22 medals overall. Neither one of us likes to lose.Phelps and Lochte actually had their first encounter on the way to the deck. Lochte, walking out right behind Phelps, stepped on the back of his sneaker.I gave him a flat tire by accident, Lochte said. Hes like, `What are you doing, trying to mess me up? I was like, `No, no, no.All was forgiven when it was over, Phelps and Lochte holding up their arms together on the deck while the sellout crowd roared.It was the end for another defending Olympic champion.Tyler Clary finished third in the 200 backstroke and called it a career, having missed out on a chance to defend the gold he won in London. He finished behind California Aquatics teammates Ryan Murphy and Jacob Pebley, who earned the two spoots for Rio.ddddddddddddMurphy grabbed the lead on the second lap and pulled away to win easily in 1:53.95, completing a sweep of the backstroke events.Pebley held on for the second spot, touching in 1:54.77 to earn his first trip to the Olympics.Clary was next at 1:55.33. He clung to a lane rope while Murphy and Pebley celebrated, before swimming over to congratulate them both.Thats it, Clary said. I couldnt be happier to be sending Team USA off with two backstrokers that I have a lot of respect for, and I know they are going to represent Team USA well in Rio.There was another sweep in the womens breaststroke, where Lilly King added a 200 victory to her earlier triumph in the 100. The 19-year-old from Indiana won in 2:24.08, while Molly Hannis claimed the second Rio spot at 2:24.39, giving the U.S. team yet another Olympic rookie.Then again, it wasnt totally a night for the upstarts.Anthony Ervin and Nathan Adrian were the top two qualifiers in the semifinals of the 50 freestyle. The 35-year-old Ervin led the way in 21.55, while Adrian was second quickest in 21.60. Both men are already on the team, with Ervin still seeking an individual event to go with his relay duty and Adrian set to defend his 100 free title from the London Games.Dont forget Cullen Jones, a silver medalist in this event four years ago. The 32-year-old was third quickest in 21.93.Katie Ledeckys bid to add another relay to her Rio program took a big blow when she finished seventh in the 100 freestyle. Abbey Weitzeil (53.28) and Simone Manuel (53.52), a pair of 19-year-olds heading to their first Olympics, earned the individual spots. Olympic veterans Amanda Weir, Lia Neal, Allison Schmitt and Dana Vollmer took the next four spots to put themselves at the head of the 4x100 free relay pool.Ledecky will likely have to settle for three individual events and one relay at these games. Her sprinting still needs a bit of work.I wouldve loved to have gone faster, but Ill take it, she said.Phelps has locked up two individual events for Rio, having already qualified in the 200 butterfly. He returned about 30 minutes after his victory over Lochte to post the sixth-fastest time in the semifinals of the 100 fly.That was good enough to send Phelps to the final Saturday night -- his final event of the trials.Then its on to Rio, where one more race with Lochte awaits.---Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pnewberry1963 .
