| Reports claiming England are interested in luring NRL stars have been dismissed as illogical by an unimpressed Wayne Bennett.Former NSW halfback Trent Hodkinson told the Newcastle Herald that Bennett spoke to him about a switch while Brett and Josh Morris were also believed to be in his sights ahead of this years Four Nations in the UK.Hodkinsons father is English while the Morris twins would be eligible thanks to their grandfather.But England coach Bennett pleaded ignorance about the reports.Its media driven. I have no idea what is going on out there, he said.Its none of my doing.You guys are getting yourselves all excited - your blood pressure is up.Bennett said it didnt make sense that the Morris twins would switch their allegiances.It is not even logical, he said.They have both played for Australia, they are both Australian players if they are fit.Why would they want to go play for England?Its just a cheap story, guys.Hodkinson told the Newcastle Herald that Bennett had spoken to him and seemed open to making the switch, saying he would wait and see.Newcastle No.7 Hodkinson would potentially form a strong England halves combination with the Dragons Gareth Widdop.However, the Morris brothers said Bennett had not been in contact with them about changing allegiances.It was also news to senior England forward Sam Burgess.Thats the first Ive heard of it. I dont pick the team - Wayne will make his decision so well wait and see, the South Sydney forward said.Wayne will bring what Wayne brings to most organisations he works with, a bit of experience.Ill just wait until I get there before I start thinking about it.The Rugby League International Federation has subsequently tried to shut down a potential NRL switch, saying players cant swap between Australia, New Zealand and England.Players from tier-one countries cannot move between each other, RLIF official Tas Baitieri told News Corp.They can only move upwards or downwards (between tier-one and tier-two nations).However Baitieris comments do not align with the eligibility rules posted on the organisations website.They state players can swap between nations once between World Cups or every two years, making no mention of tier-one or tier-two countries.

Tremon Smith Hoodie .C. -- Charlotte Bobcats coach Steve Clifford said after all of these years in the NBA hes still amazed at some of the things LeBron James does.SEATTLE, Washington - Thanks to Alex Rodriguez – thats not a typo – we will get a better understanding of the depths of the mess caused by Biogenesis and its ballplayer clients. There isnt much sympathy for the Yankees third baseman, a fallen star, but players do support A-Rods right to play as he appeals a 211-game suspension – through the 2014 season – which is scheduled to begin on Thursday. “He says he feels good to play, I mean I dont know too much about whats going on there but if he feels like he wants to play and they let him play I dont see why not,” said Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes. “Be on the field, play baseball and do what he loves to do. From the other stuff, I dont know whats going to happen to be honest with you.” It could be that Reyes has but a passing interest in the Rodriguez-Major League Baseball-Biogenesis saga or, perhaps, hes on to something. We really dont know how this will play out. Rodriguez intends to appeal, a legal process which could take weeks or months and keep him on the field until an independent arbitrator renders a ruling. This is good and it will be healthy for the game. Theatre aside, maybe well actually learn of whats gone on here. Unlike about a dozen others who swallowed their pride, signed off on statements and disappeared to serve 50-game suspensions, Rodriguez intends to defend his honour. The fact he has no honour as an already admitted drug cheat and as a nauseating narcissist is irrelevant. His will to fight opens the entire process to greater scrutiny. Did Rodriguez attempt to purchase the documents linking him to Biogenesis from Tony Bosch, the founder of the now-defunct anti-aging clinic? Or did Bosch, facing financial ruin after a disgruntled employee went public about Biogenesis peddling of PEDs, attempt to extort money from Rodriguez in exchange for the papers? Will an arbitrator view Bosch as a credible witness considering Major League Baseball threatened to sue him if he didnt cooperate? Was Rodriguez not only a user of Biogenesis product but also a recruiter, supplying the clinic with additional clients from the baseball world? These questions will – or at least should – be answered because Rodriguez, regardless of motive, has the gumption to fight. The Players Association, which backs a cleaner game on behalf of members who are fed up with others drug use, is supporting A-Rods appeal. Players like Mark DeRosa, who want a clean game, also see the value in the appeals process. “I know its something that weve got to address,” said veteran Mark DeRosa. “I just think that when we sit down in the offseason or when that Players Association meetings get together Im sure there are going to be a lot of opinions on a lot of ways to just, I dont want to say to make itt easier, just make it a one shot lifetime ban, see ya later and then no one will ever do it again.dddddddddddd I dont know if thats the answer. Im sure there will be a lot of things discussed.” As a player who broke into the big leagues in the late 1990s, the height of steroid use in the game, DeRosa is bothered that drug use continues to be a hot topic. “Just very tiring to listen to,” he said. Tigers shortstop Jhonny Peralta settled for a 50-game suspension. Should Detroit make the playoffs, hell be eligible to return to the lineup at that time. DeRosa, a teammate of Peraltas for part of the 2009 season, was shaken by the news. “Peraltas the toughest one for me,” he said. “I shared a locker next to him in Cleveland. Shared a locker next to him all of spring training and the first half of the season and I know him, I know his wife, I know his kids, I know his family so thats shocking. No it wont change my perspective of him as a person. Definitely you question some things but Id like to think I know who the real guy is.” The unknown seems to bothers players most. No doubt, theres a washed up pitcher somewhere who didnt make it because drug users were rapping his offerings over outfield walls in minor league parks across the country. Surely theres a dirty player in the majors who beat out a minor league teammate, at the same position, because the other guy was clean. Greats like Ryan Braun, the guy the Brewers chose to give a nine-figure contract instead of Prince Fielder, may no longer be great without the drugs. “I dont think these people realize its affected way more than just them,” said DeRosa. However well intentioned his comment, DeRosa surely realizes a dirty player whos stashed away millions of dollars likely has fewer regrets about his career than the clean scrub who never made the big time and wonders how different his bank account would be if hed cheated. As for the commissioner, Bud Seligs war on drugs is inconsistent with the passive stance he took as Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and Barry Bonds rewrote record books and did all but turn green in transforming into Incredible Hulk-like characters. Maybe back then he didnt care, just thankful for renewed interest in the game years after the players strike of 1994 wiped out a World Series and public appetite for the sport. Maybe back then he didnt know, ignorant like so many of the rest of us who want so badly to believe the sports we watch are pure. Either way, this pursuit feels better suited to the man who will succeed Selig. As for A-Rod, its the strangest thing. So obsessed is he with his legacy and his money owed that hes willing to fight. His motive is personal. It always is. The difference, in this instance, is that baseball fans stand to benefit.
