St Helens coach Keiron Cunningham is confident of gaining a reaction from his misfiring players when they get the 2016 Dacia World Club Series under way against Sydney Roosters on Friday, live on Sky Sports 1 HD. While the cream of Super League have a chance to compare themselves with their NRL counterparts, the Australians are clear favourites to complete another whitewash following their 3-0 triumph in the inaugural series 12 months ago. Barrie v Terry Barrie McDermott and Terry OConnor are backing Saints to defeat the Roosters That included a record 39-0 defeat for Saints at the hands of South Sydney in the World Club Challenge, but Cunningham insists that humiliating experience will not form part of his pre-match talk. Everybody likes to talk about revenge but, for one thing, its against the wrong team and secondly we go out to try and play as hard as we can every week, he said.After being centre stage last year, Saints were only invited to take part this time because Leeds success in completing the treble created a vacancy that the Rugby Football League was left to fill. Brian Carneys Roosters to watch Latrell Mitchell: The next Greg Inglis?Jayden Nikorima: Talented 19-year-old set for Roosters debut.Jackson Hastings: Young playmaker likely to start in the halves. Cunningham is delighted his club have been given that opportunity but he is more concerned about his players responding to last weeks shock 44-10 hammering by Salford, which the former Saints hooker took personally after sensing a hint of complacency.It was a real tough weekend, he said. I suppose what makes you appreciate the highs is the lows and it definitely was a low point in my career.That sounds a bit dramatic - it was round two - but the preparation leading into the game was not the way I like to go about things. Saints suffered a 44-10 hiding at Salford last week Well definitely get a reaction, thats going to happen, it really is a definite.We know were a good side, weve just got to prepare well and turn up on the day. There is no bigger game to do that.There is a lot of pride on the line because its our home venue and were hurting from last week. As regards last year, its last year, its something we cant have any bearing on. England international Joe Burgess (left), pictured with Mitchell Aubusson, could make his Roosters debut at Langtree Park The Roosters arrived in England under something of a cloud following the internal suspension of co-captain Mitchell Pearce, which came on the heels of the departures of Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, James Maloney and Michael Jennings and the loss of Boyd Cordner and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves to injury.Roosters coach Trent Robinson will take a look at a new half-back pairing in 19-year-old Jayden Nikorima and 20-year-old Jackson Hastings and will also give debuts to Dale Copley and former Wigan winger Joe Burgess. Six NRL players to watch We look at six players from Down Under who could hit the headlines Theyve got a very good squad - in my eyes one of the best in the competition - and theyre going to do very well in the NRL again this year, said Cunningham.It will be a massive battle. We have a couple of games under our belt but we know their strike and they are one of the strongest sides in rugby league.I have always admired how they play and Trent Robinson is a good coach too. Travis Burns (right) has been recalled by Keiron Cunningham St Helens are still without England hooker James Roby, who picked up a rib injury in their opening-round win over Huddersfield.Close-season signing Dominique Peyroux returns to plug the gap created by the loss of centre Mark Percival with a knee injury and stand-off Travis Burns is back in contention after being ignored for the first two rounds of Super League.It was for the balance of the team, said Cunningham. I spoke to Travis about it so hes aware of the reason behind it.Its a challenge for Travis to try and get that shirt back.

Nike Air Force 1 Low Dames Sale . The Montreal Canadiens announced on Friday that the veteran forward will return to the teams line-up on Saturday night when the Habs visit the Nashville Predators. Texas A&M and Arkansas will present an interesting contrast in quarterbacks on Saturday (9 p.m. ET) when they clash at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.Graduate transfer Trevor Knight, who had 15 starts in his first two years at Oklahoma before losing his job to Baker Mayfield in 2015, will lead the No. 10 Aggies (3-0, 1-0 SEC).Junior Austin Allen, the understudy to his brother Brandon the last two seasons, will be behind center for the 17th-ranked Razorbacks (3-0, 0-0).Both seem to be exactly what their respective teams have needed in the early going.Knight, who won the starting job in the spring after coming to College Station in January, has passed for 830 yards and five touchdowns despite completing only 52.9 percent of his passes.Part of the reason for Knights low completion percentage is that he was on target on only half of his 40 attempts against Auburn last week. But Knight was the victim of some drops and also had a long completion to Ricky Seals-Jones nullified when the wide receiver had a foot land inches out of bounds.When it counted, Knight was 8 of 11 after falling behind at Auburn to help the Aggies take a 10-7 lead. He ended up passing for 247 yards and rushing for a net 42 against the Tigers.He was really good early, Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin said of Knight. For him to play the way he did really gave us a chance to get ahead.Knight also has rushed for 151 yards in the three games on 28 carries.I think hes a deceptive big man with speed, Arkansas coach Bret Bielema said. Hes got good size. They list him at 6-foot-1 and 215. To me he looks a lot taller than that, and moves.Allen has been the straw that stirs the drink for Arkansas.In the win over TCU in Week 2, he was named SEC Player of Week after passing for 233 yards and three touchdowns on 17-of-29 passing. Allens 5-yard run in the second overtime gave the Razorbacks a 41-38 victory.He wasnt all that pressed last week in the 42-3 rout of Texas State, but still was 16-of-21 passing for 241 yards and two more touchhdowns.dddddddddddd.Allen has completed 67.1 percent of his passes for the year for an average of 218.3 yards a game with seven touchdowns against two picks.He is just the fourth quarterback to go 3-0 in his first three collegiate starts for Arkansas since it joined the SEC in the 1992 season. The others were Tyler Wilson in 2011, Mitch Mustain in 2006, and Robby Hampton in 2000. His seven touchdown passes over that span are tied with Ryan Mallett (2009) and Mustain for the high in that category over that same span.Austin does a lot of things very well, Bielema said. I think he throws on the move very well, and he throws well to the left and to the right which youve seen a little glimpse of.He can run the football, but I wouldnt say we want to make a heavy dose of it. That jump cut he gave to his left wasnt quite as good as our running backs, but it sufficed. Im just excited to watch him continue to grow.The Aggies, however, will be the toughest test yet for Allen when it comes to facing pressure.They have two perimeter rushers that are as good as anybody in the country, Bielema said.That would be ends Daeshon Hall, a 6-foot-6, 270-pound senior, and Myles Garrett, a 6-5, 270-pound junior. Together, they averaged 1.5 sacks a game in 2015 with Garrett leading the SEC with 12.5 total. Garrett also had 10 quarterback hurries. Hall had 7.0 sacks and another four hurries.This season, Garrett has three sacks and four hurries. Hall is looking for his first sack, but has been credited with three hurries.The two teams will be meeting in Arlington for a third consecutive season and seventh time overall. The first meeting in Arlington was way back in 1906 when the Aggies won 6-0.So far, the five games at AT&T Stadium have gone the way of streaks. Arkansas won the first three from 2009-11. The Aggies have won the last two in Arlington and the last four meetings overall. ' ' '
