Port Adelaide have ended their season on a high after grinding out a 23-point victory over Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium.Port looked on track to win in a canter on Saturday night and led by 39 points early in the third quarter, but the plucky Suns responded and eventually fell 13.11 (89) to 9.12 (66).Led by Robbie Gray (four goals, 34 disposals) and backed up by off-contract forward Jay Schulz (three goals), the Power scored their 10th win of the season.The Suns held the early ascendency but should have enjoyed a larger advantage, with Sam Day missing three set shots at goal in the first term.Schulz kicked Port into the lead late in the first quarter and nailed his second major during a three-goal Power blitz during the second stanza.The Suns struck back through Brandon Matera only for Port Adelaide to respond again via Sam Gray in another wasteful quarter dominated by missed shots at goal.Tom Lynch had two easy misses as the Power went into the main break leading by 21 points.Robbie Grays second and third goals bookended another simple missed shot from Lynch and a third goal to Schulz took Port out to a 39-point lead at the seven-minute mark of the third quarter.Back-to-back goals gave the Suns some momentum until Gray popped up again to boot his third major of the third term.The Suns continued to toil away and were rewarded with three consecutive goals to bring the margin back to 15 points late in the quarter as the Power switched off.Port Adelaide were desperate for a settling goal and found one three minutes into the final quarter through Jarman Impey.However, they were unable to stretch their lead beyond three goals until Brad Ebert kicked a major with five minutes remaining.Robbie Gray, named best on ground, was pleased with how Port Adelaide responded after a lacklustre third quarter.We definitely wanted to come away with the win and they challenged us in the third quarter so we had to pick up our game a little bit, he said.Full credit to the Gold Coast, though. They had a dig and made it a hard-fought game. Gale Sayers Bears Jersey . The showiest items on Calgarys lot were forwards Mike Cammalleri and Lee Stempniak.

Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself. Tom Waddle Bears Jersey . -- The boos poured down on Tom Brady and the New England Patriots at the end of a horrible first half. RIO DE JANEIRO -- They could teach positive thinking to Tony Robbins, but as a group, the U.S. mens gymnastics team actually might have to dial it down a bit.Using the 2012 London Olympics as a ready example, the fervent five must quickly tuck away an impressive second-place finish to China in the qualification round Saturday at Rios Olympic Stadium and come to grips with a few realities.It should not be that difficult.Atop the list is the fact that they finished first in qualifications at the 2012 Games before placing fifth in the team finals.Looking ahead to Mondays team finals, China, team gold medalists the past two Olympics and three of the past four, along with fourth-place Japan and even fifth-place Great Britain are still considered heavier favorites than the U.S.And on a day in which the mood was permanently dampened by the gruesome injury to French gymnast Samir Ait Said, whose bad landing on a vault snapped his lower left leg with a crack heard to the upper reaches of the arena, it was one more reminder of the delicate nature of the sport.This sport is absolutely brutal, said Sam Mikulak, who finished in seventh place to qualify for Wednesdays all-around finals along with teammate Chris Brooks, who finished 19th. We learned that from John Orozco [who was originally chosen for the 2016 Olympic team but lost his spot due to a serious knee injury a little more than two weeks before Rio]. Especially to be in the Olympic Games and go down like that, its a horrible, horrible thing.We just have to get in the zone, stay focused and do the gymnastics we came out here to do.Considering it was far from a flawless day for the Americans, who faltered specifically and significantly on pommel horse, they were still able to maintain a sunny disposition at the overall result.If we hit our sets, I think well be on the podium, said Jake Dalton. It may take a pretty fantastic day to be No. 1, but thats what were shooting for. It depends on the other [teams] but I think were good enough.There is one school of thought that a superior team like China holds back in the qualification rounds, if not exactly lulling its opponents into a state of complacency, then at least saving its best for last.All scores are wiped clean for the team, all-around and apparatus finals.U.S. team coordinator Kevin Mazeika said the Americans subscribe too that philosophy to a certain degree as well.dddddddddddd We definitely talked about keeping something in the tank for Monday, he said.Mikulak agreed.Today was about setting a tone for team finals, he said. We didnt want to put on the best show weve ever had in our lives right now. We wanted to just make sure we got out on the equipment, were comfortable and were ready to improve on what we did today.Its just another day at the office, Brooks said. We just did what we needed to do. I think were sitting in good position. Our consistency is pretty good. Its been going well in training. I have all the confidence in the world that these guys are going to smash what we need to. Take away the good and leave the bad. Monday is a new day and we have to keep the ball rolling.Brooks, 29, sat in the stands in London four years ago as a team alternate. On Saturday, he stood in the tunnel before taking the floor with his team and said he became emotional after I talked to my dad a little bit.Brooks lost his father, Larry, who also coached him, in a car accident in 2008. I started to tear up and I was like, No, no, no, its time, you got to get it together. Lets go out there and do some gymnastics.Before they left their rooms, the U.S. gymnasts continued their ritual of reading one of a supply of inspirational sayings provided to them by their physical therapist.Saturdays was an oldie but a goodie: If you believe strongly enough in your pursuit, it will come to fruition.Four years ago, Brooks wasnt entirely sure the U.S. team did that.From where I was sitting in the stands, we just have to keep ourselves together as a team a little bit more, he said. It seemed like after a couple little mistakes in finals last time, the team chemistry wasnt quite there. It didnt seem like they were picking themselves up. I think thats something this team can do. Were good at that.But first, said Danell Leyva, the 2012 all-around bronze medalist who took Orozcos spot on the team this time, they have to put 2012 out of their minds.Theres no point in trying to remember something negative to obtain a positive outcome, Leyva said. Theres nothing we can do about London anymore. We just have to get as ready as we can for Monday. ' ' '
