Cronulla coach Shane Flanagan has refused to rule out making a play for unwanted Wests Tigers hooker Robbie Farah to replace retiring veteran Michael Ennis next season.Flanagan threw up a number of contenders to fill the boots of Ennis over the summer, including forgotten utility Faamanu Brown, however all eyes are on the possibility of Farah making the switch to the Shire.Just minutes after Ennis formally announced his end-of-season retirement on Tuesday, Flanagan played coy when asked whether the Sharks would be interested in the Tigers outcast.I havent even thought about it, he told AAP.However, given the clubs success in resurrecting Ennis career over the past two years, Sharks hierarchy are sure to flirt with the idea of repeating history with the incumbent NSW State of Origin rake.Flanagan was far more open to anointing Brown, who has played just one game this year, as the teams next No.9 ahead of Australian Schoolboy brothers Jayden and Blayke Brailey.The club has also been linked to another Wests Tigers hooker in the off-contract Manaia Cherrington.Weve got Nu Brown who we always thought was going to be a hooker, Flanagan said.Weve got last years Australian Schoolboy Jayden Brailey, and weve got the current Australian Schoolboy in his brother Blayke Brailey coming through.Those two arent ready yet, and theyre not going to be ready next year. But weve got a plan in place. It might have to be moved 12 months forward, but well move on.League legend Peter Sterling is a fan of the Sharks bidding for Farah, especially if his current contract - he is believed to be owed close to $1 million next season - would be heavily subsidised by the Tigers.The more I think about it the more I think hed be a pretty good fit there, dependant of course on what kind of money youre going to get him for, Sterling told Triple Ms Rush Hour.Youre kind of getting a like-for-like hooker. Theyre both good out of dummy half, both got good vision, both can kick the football, so it would be quite a comfortable transition for Robbie Farah. Stitched Mets Jerseys .

LANDOVER, Md. -- Preston Smith kept wondering if Sam Bradford was going to throw the ball, and then he just wanted to make sure he held on.Smith grabbed a crucial interception and dropped Bradford with two sacks, helping the Washington Redskins beat the Minnesota Vikings 26-20 on Sunday for their first victory in almost a month.After allowing 20 consecutive points in 5:39 to close out the second quarter, Smith and the Redskins (5-3-1) shut out the Vikings (5-4) in the second half of Minnesotas fourth consecutive loss.We played lockdown defense, cornerback Josh Norman said. We got the shutout in the second half, didnt give up any more points (and got) three-and-outs.Smith was a big part of the resurgence. Amid a quiet season, he was the big-play component the Redskins needed, delivering the type of production coach Jay Gruden wanted to see from the second-year linebacker.Jay has been riding me like one of those horses, said Smith, who secured the victory by sacking Bradford in the final seconds. I feel like Jay is a jockey, and Im the horse trying to win the race and hes just been riding me so hard and not giving me (any) break.Bradford finished 31 of 40 for 307 yards, two touchdowns and the interception . Kyle Rudolph and Adam Thielen each had a touchdown reception during the burst in the second quarter, and Stefon Diggs finished with 13 catches for 164 yards.Stefs going to make plays, said Redskins cornerback Kendall Fuller, a high school teammate of Diggs. You just have to find a way to limit him and make a play when it counts. Any game he plays hes going to get his.Washington quarterback Kirk Cousins was 22 of 33 for 262 yards and touchdown passes to Vernon Davis and Jamison Crowder. Undrafted rookie running back Robert Kelley had 22 carries for 97 yards in his second game as the starter.It was a well-timed win for the Redskins, who were coming off their bye week and had tied the Cincinnati Bengals in London and lost in the final minute to the Detroit Lions. Dustin Hopkins had all 12 of Washingtons second-half points, including a 50-yard field goall.ddddddddddddIRATE COUSINSWhen officials didnt call a pass interference penalty on Minnesotas Trae Waynes when he was defending Ryan Grant in the second quarter, Cousins was so mad he sprinted down the field and had his hands on his head in disbelief. There was some contact, but it also looked like Grant, who was starting in place of injured receiver DeSean Jackson, slipped.It was a big play in the game, Cousins said. I just wanted to voice my opinion.WORTH NOTINGSix of Smiths 11 1/2 career sacks have been of Bradford.FUMBLES FOLLOWEven with former No. 1 running back Matt Jones demoted and made inactive in part because of fumbles, the Redskins butterfingers continued. Change-of-pace back Chris Thompson fumbled at his own 32-yard line with a minute left in the second quarter, setting up the Vikings third touchdown.GUTSY VIKINGSWith 5 seconds left before halftime, the Vikings opted to run a play from the Washington 3 instead of kicking a field goal. The gamble worked, with Bradford connecting with Thielen on a touchdown pass that put Minnesota ahead.WALSH MISSES AGAINAfter Thielens touchdown, Blair Walsh shanked his extra-point attempt wide right. Walsh, who kept his job after Minnesota brought in six free-agent kickers for workouts, fell to 15 of 19 on the season (79 percent) on extra points.Honestly, I didnt even see the kick, so I dont know what happened on it, other than he missed, Zimmer said.BLACK AND PURPLEThe Vikings lost left tackle Jake Long with a potentially season-ending Achilles tendon injury, linebacker Eric Kendricks with a hip injury and cornerback Xavier Rhodes, who was evaluated for a concussion.QUOTABLEBradford on the interception: Just didnt see him.Redskins linebacker Sua Cravens on Smith: I wont be able to talk to that man for three, next four days after the game he had.
