Injuries may be taking their toll but warhorse North Queensland prop Matt Scott is being backed to play until at least 2020 by someone who knows whats it takes - Petero Civoniceva.Scott has been placed in cotton wool by the Cowboys ahead of Friday nights NRL preliminary final against Cronulla at Allianz Stadium.The North Queensland prop is nursing a list of ailments including a bulging disc in his back and was in obvious pain during last weeks extra-time semi-final win over Brisbane.Still, the 31-year-old this week backed himself to not only step up in the Cowboys title defence but also play on until at least the end of 2020.Long-serving Test prop Civoniceva believed Scott - off contract in 2017 - had at least four seasons left despite the Cowboys front rowers worrying ailments.Civoniceva - who played until the age of 36 - said experience and age could also work in Scotts favour.For sure he can keep going. Obviously it is up to how his body responds, Civoniceva told AAP.The week to week grind can take its toll but knowing Matt, he is the ultimate professional.And that comes easier when you get older.He has learned that the longer you play the better you understand your body and know what works and what doesnt work.Scott said this week that he hoped to re-sign until at least 2020 with contract talks to start in the off-season.Civoniceva - State of Origins most capped prop with 33 for Queensland - saluted ex-Maroons teammate Scotts durability in his 13th season.That just shows his toughness, he said.No one can ever question that about him, he just rolls up the sleeves and gets on with it.Last week you could see he was in discomfort but its a testament to his mental and physical strength.No doubt he will again lead from the front on Friday night.Scott underwent off-season surgery on a bulging disc in his neck.Cowboys coach Paul Green hinted that his co-captain may require some more medical assistance after their 2016 campaign.He copped an elbow (in the back) early against Brisbane which added just one more thing to the list of stuff he has to deal with on a weekly basis, Green said.I dont want to understate what he has to put himself through to get himself on the paddock.But there is nothing that stops him from functioning. He is just dealing with pain which he is pretty good at.But hes fine. There is a light at the end of the tunnel now. Buddy Hield Kings Jersey .

Aduriz headed home Markel Susaetas cross in the sixth minute to open the scoring at San Mames Stadium. He bettered that with a long-range blast that went in off the goal frame in the 18th, and converted a penalty in the 72nd after Diego Mainz was sent off for fouling Aduriz with only the goalkeeper to beat.

There are many more players in contention for the awards than just the three that Ive named, and a good or bad week can easily alter the landscape, but through the first 20 or so games of the NHL season, this is how the awards races look to me. SEATTLE -- Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones was not pleased to see a video on TMZ that appeared to show?Ezekiel Elliott?at a marijuana dispensary hours before the rookie running back was set to make his preseason debut.In the video, a man the website reported to be Elliott was seen in Herban Legends in Seattle, but he was not shown making any purchases.Well, I think that in and of itself the reason we are talking about is in a way part of the learning process, Jones said after the Cowboys loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday. But its not good. Its just not good. Its just not good.Marijuana remains a banned substance in the NFL, though its recreational use is legal in the state of Washington.Elliott carried the ball seven times for 48 yards in the first quarter.Elliott is under investigation by the Columbus, Ohio, attorneys office for an alleged domestic violence incident involvving a former girlfriend.dddddddddddd Elliott has denied the accusations, but he has yet to be interviewed.The Cowboys have backed Elliott and have not seen his story change.The NFL seems disinclined to become publicly involved in the situation, believing Jones sufficiently rebuked Elliott. But the league continues to monitor the investigation in Ohio, a source told ESPNs Ed Werder, describing Elliotts pattern of behavior as a concern.The TMZ video, however, evidently upset Jones.Again, thats a part of just really getting the big picture here, Jones said. No matter if you played at whatever level, there is a picture here of interest. So again, Im aware of it. I heard the report. I would know how he is, and he needs to look at that. And the other thing is its just not good. ' ' '
