North Melbourne star Jack Ziebell says hes ready, willing and able to be the next captain of the Kangaroos.The 25-year-old has long been viewed as the heir apparent for the top job that was vacated by Andrew Swallow in October.Norths players will vote on the next captain and coach Brad Scott will also have input into a decision that is expected to come sooner in the pre-season rather than later.Ziebell told reporters on Friday that hes taking nothing for granted, but it would be a huge shock if he didnt take over the job hes long been groomed for.Obviously Ive thought about it a little bit and its something that Ive aspired to do, Ziebell said from the launch of the clubs new logo.But Ive said publicly before that if I was to captain or I wasnt to captain it probably wouldnt change much of my actions and the way I go about my football.Im about trying to help my teammates improve, as well as myself, and drive this footy club to, hopefully, its next premiership.I dont expect anything, but obviously with Andrew stepping down ... theres a position vacant and if its me, thats great, but if its not Ill support whoever gets the job.Ziebell will take over with his club in a transitional phase after the departures of popular veterans Brent Harvey, Drew Petrie, Nick Dal Santo and Michael Firrito.The tough midfielder denied the shock cull on the eve of the finals was a factor in their emphatic elimination final exit at the hands of Adelaide.But he conceded the departure of the quartet has ushered in a new era at Arden Street.I think its really exciting. Obviously we farewelled a few of our champions, which was sad, but we understand thats what happens in football, he said.Its tough. They probably all had cases to play on next year, but we all know how football works. Ill back Brads decisions. He had to make tough calls for the footy club.(But) weve got a lot of young guys ready to take their opportunities. We all know what youth brings and thats excitement.Were super excited about 2017 and what it might bring for our footy club.Scarpe Air Max Outlet . Its sharpness matched my mind.

They wanted to shake Chris Boshs hand. By now, its not a surprise when the biggest man in Miamis trio of stars gets overshadowed, which surely seemed to be the case once again in the game that essentially saved any hope the Heat have at winning their second straight NBA title. James scored 33 points in his best game of the finals and Wade played his best game in about three months with 32 points, but Boshs 20-point, 13-rebound effort in Miamis 109-93 win over San Antonio was not lost on the Heat. "He got into the battle. He got into the fight," Wade said. "He played big for us. Thirteen rebounds, thats what we need from him and obviously 20 points. He played the way that we love to see Chris Bosh play." Put another way, if Bosh keeps playing like this, there could be another parade down Biscayne Boulevard in a few days. Maligned throughout much of the playoffs for relying almost too much on the long jumper and 3-point shot -- hes exceptional from the outside for a big man, but went 0 for 4 from 3-point range in Miamis loss in Game 1 of the finals -- Bosh quietly changed his approach. In the next three games of the finals, hes taken one 3-pointer, and that was a meaningless misfire with the Heat down by 26 points midway through the fourth quarter of San Antonios romp in Game 3. Hes had three straight double-doubles, just the second time thats happened all season. Hes stayed in more comfortable offensive locales inside the arc, and has totalled 44 points and 33 rebounds in the most recent three games of the series -- three more points and three more rebounds than the Spurs Tim Duncan has collected in that span. Yes, the NBA found him guilty of flopping in Game 4, fining him $5,000 for his arms-flailing fall after a nudge by Duncan. Overall, though, Bosh was anything but a flop in a game that kept Miami from going into what would have been a dreaded 3-1 hole. "I dont know really what the difference has been with Chris," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said on Friday, an off day for both teams before the series resumes with Game 5 in San Antonio on Sunday. "All we know is we need it. And last night he played all his minutes at the centre, where we needed it even more. It will be a collective effort. But there wont be anybody else we can turn to." The Heat have an offensive style all their own, the so-called positionless approach. The sstarting lineup in Game 4 was James, Wade, Mario Chalmers and Mike Miller along with Bosh, meaning it was four perimeter players with one big man, against a Spurs lineup that has, in Duncan, one of the best power forwards of all time.dddddddddddd Bosh played Duncan evenly. Both scored 20. The other star matchups, those were Miami routs. James and Wade combined for 65 points. San Antonios Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili combined for 20. "When those guys play like that," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said of Miamis three stars, "you better be playing a more perfect game." Spoelstras decision to start Miller in Game 4 sparked a flurry of trickledown effects. The Spurs went to their bench 47 seconds into the game. Millers mere presence helped open up some space for James and Wade, and their big scoring nights were no coincidence. It also gave Bosh extra room to manoeuvr inside, where he seemed active as hed been at any point in the series, maybe the entire playoffs. "I was able to get in the paint a lot more," Bosh said. "I think it really opened up my game a little bit. The jumper really wasnt there in the first half, but it came eventually. I was just able to get in a really good flow." The second half, he was darn close to perfect. He made five of his six shots, had nine rebounds, two blocks to keep the game tied in a two-possession span midway through the third quarter, even got on the floor for a loose ball as teammates around him couldnt wait to pull him up and slap his backside. And when the night was over, Bosh really wasnt all that fascinated with his stat line. All that mattered was the win. "Its just the disposition, first of all, with myself, and then everybody else," Bosh said. "Those things are going to follow. I dont really pay too much attention to the numbers. Its just how Im doing, the energy and effort that Im giving out there, and everything else falls into place. I always believe that if I bring the necessary energy, things will go well." Thats why the Heat have called him their most important player for the last three years. Thats also why, after a game where they grabbed the headlines, James and Wade wouldnt walk into the Texas night without their big man. "Ever since weve gotten together, since the first game, weve had to respond to adversity," Bosh said. "Thats something that we pride ourselves on. And we really concentrate. When things get rough and theyre not going like you want them to go, thats when we pull together even more." ' ' '
