Cronulla is the perfect place for out-of-sorts former representative star Tony Williams to re-discover the form and desire that made him one of the NRLs most feared forwards, according to Sharks skipper Paul Gallen.Williams will join the premiers next year on a one-year deal after a largely underwhelming four seasons with Canterbury.The 27-year-old Williams joined the Bulldogs in 2013 as a premiership winner and Australian forward but largely failed to deliver on his big-money move to Belmore.The Sharks have thrown Williams a lifeline for next year and Gallen believes the 193cm, 120kg former wrecking ball can be a success.We all know how big and strong and powerful he can be and I think coming off the bench for us he can do that again, Gallen said.The good thing is he wont have to come to our club and play big minutes and he wont have to do a lot of work. We have myself, Wade (Graham) and Luke Lewis who can do that.So he can come back and just play that powerful type of game.If he can get his head right and get some desire to really want to play well again there is no reason why he cant get back to where he was two years ago.It was only a couple of years ago he was playing for Australia and he was one of the most devastating players in the competition. He just needs to want it a bit more.Gallen said the Sharks were also looking to shore up their hooking depth before the start of their premiership defence after the retirement of Michael Ennis.Former Wests Tigers rake Manaia Cherrington has moved to the Sharks, while Jayden Brailey is considered one of the games most promising No.9s.But Gallen said the Sharks could use some more experience in the dummy half role ahead of the 2017 season.While it would be a big ask for Jayden to play the whole year next year I certainly think he will play first grade, Gallen said.For his size and his age he is one of the strongest kids I have seen in the gym and you watch him on the field and he has all the skills.Gallen nominated South Sydneys Damien Cook and former Penrith star James Segeyaro, now with English club Leeds, as potentially good fits.

Salomon Shoes NZ Online . -- Nathan Pancel scored twice as the Sudbury Wolves defeated the North Bay Battalion 4-2 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Just as the video celebrating his first 600 wins was wrapping up, Kansas coach Bill Self turned to his left and saw Frank Mason III, extending a ball to him to commemorate the milestone.It was fitting: Nobody did more to deliver Selfs most recent victory.The sparkplug point guard poured in 30 points to match his career high, Devonte Graham and Josh Jackson also had starring roles, and the third-ranked Jayhawks cruised to a 105-62 victory over Missouri-Kansas City on Tuesday night to give their coach a win 24 years in the making.Its really cool to see all the guys who have been a part of this before and been before me, said Jackson, who had 19 points, 12 rebounds and five assists. To be part now feels good.Indeed, more than a dozen of Selfs former players appeared on the video, ranging from Cole Aldrich and Mario Chalmers to Tony Heard, one of the coachs early stars at Tulsa.We tried to get him to cry, Jackson said, but he was like, `Nah, not happening.Self is the ninth-fastest coach to reach 600 wins, just behind Phog Allen, whose name adorns Kansas building. The former Oral Roberts, Tulsa and Illinois coach is 394-84 with the Jayhawks, and Selfs mark of 212-9 at Allen Fieldhouse is downright absurd considering the Jayhawks typically rugged schedule.The video was really good. I had no idea, Self said. Seeing some of those men, those guys were just kids when we had them, and some of them are over 40 years old now. Seeing some of those guys up there, that was very meaningful. That was very cool.Graham was 6 of 8 from beyond the arc and finished with 18 points for the Jayhawks (8-1), while Svi Mykhailiuk added 10 points and seven rebounds off the bench.LaVell Boyd had 17 points for the Roos, who have never beaten Kansas in seven tries.Of course, this game against UMKC (6-4) was essentially over the moment the contract was signed.Kansas opened a 10-point lead before the 4-minute mark, extended the advantage to 51-35 by the break, then reeled off the first 10 points of the second half to put it away.Thats not to say Self enjoyed every minutte of his milestone win.ddddddddddddThere was the pass that Jackson threw to the second row of seats late in the first half. There were the missed block-outs by Landen Lucas that gave the Roos extra opportunities. And there was a turnover that prompted Self to let rip a PG-13 tirade that could be heard almost everywhere in an otherwise quiet gym.What are you guys doing? he asked. What are you frickin doing?Hardly missing a shot. The Jayhawks were 15 of 27 from beyond the arc, shot 57 percent for the game and rolled to their nation-leading 45th consecutive victory at Allen Fieldhouse.Not to mention a memorable win for their coach.I cant even fathom that, Roos coach Kareem Richardson said of Selfs 600th victory, but thats an awesome feat. And hell have a heck of a lot more wins to go with that.NO CRYING IN BASKETBALLThere were plenty of hugs for Self in the locker room, and Jackson said some of the players tried to get their coach to cry. Success? Nah, they werent going to do that, Self said. All Ive got to do is think about how we shoot free throws -- I cry when Im that mad.UMKCS MAIN GOALThe Roos hardly planned to roll over, but they also kept things in perspective. I mean, at the end of the day, we still want to get better as a team as well. Thats all we wanted to do tonight is get better, Boyd said. Asked whether that happened, he replied: Not really.BIG PICTUREUMKC could sorely use senior guard Martez Harrison, the teams second-leading scorer. He missed his fourth consecutive game while serving an indefinite suspension due to a violation of school policy.Kansas has not been tested through the first four games of a six-game homestand. The closest anybody has come to the Jayhawks was Stanford, which lost 89-74 last weekend. That was also the only time Kansas has been held under 90 points during those four games.UP NEXTUMKC plays Division II school William Jewell on Saturday.Kansas plays former Big 12 rival Nebraska on Saturday.
