Co-captain Kieren Jack wants Sydney to reproduce the pressure that singed the Cats in their last meeting, as the Swans move closer to resolving their injury issues leading into Fridays AFL preliminary final at the MCG.Forward Gary Rohan (knee) and ruckman Kurt Tippett (jaw) both ran with the main group at the start of training on Wednesday before the session was closed, while defender Callum Mills (hamstring) and midfielder Jarrad McVeigh (calf) did handball drills.By mid-afternoon Wednesday, Rising Star winner Mills had been ruled out of a second straight match due to the injury he suffered in the qualifying final loss to GWS.While Mills won t travel to Melbourne on Thursday, McVeigh, Rohan and Tippett will catch the team flight and all retain some hope of playing after training to various degrees on Wednesday.Rohans rate of recovery was significant given he was stretchered off the ground last Saturday and was sighted on crutches after the game.Initially we all probably feared the worse when you see him off on the medicab, midfielder Jack said.Hes obviously had some dark times with that leg in previous years, so to get the scan and come back positive is great. So hes up and about now and hes a chance.Given their injury queries and coming off a six-day break against a rested Geelong side who have won eight straight, minor premiers Sydney will start as underdogs.We dont care what position were in on the medical side or form side or what the betting is sort of saying, weve got a chance to play in a grand final, Jack said.Sydney overwhelmed Geelong at Simonds Stadium in round 16, walking away with a 38-point win after what was probably their finest performance of the season.Geelong suffered their biggest loss of the season and were held to 60 points, by far their lowest tally of the year.Our attitude and our desire to put pressure on the ball was top notch, probably some of the best weve done for the year, so its pretty simple. It is what we have to bring (on Friday), Jack said.I think the way we played, our mindset going into that game, our attitude on the field, thats what we need to capture again.Sydney have an excellent 5-1 record in matches coming off a six-day turnaround this season and their only loss in those circumstances was a last-gap defeat at home to Hawthorn.Its all about recovery and rehab. We think weve got that process down pat, Jack said.We train solidly today and go in with some confidence that weve done it during the year a few times on six-day breaks.We just need to make sure our mindset and our attitude is spot on heading into Saturday night. Gale Sayers Jersey . Artturi Lehkonen, Joni Nikko and Ville Leskinen had the other goals for Finland (1-0) while Juuse Saros stopped 28 shots. Tim Robin Johnsgard had the lone goal for Norway (0-2).

DAmigo scored twice in regulation and added the shootout winner as the Toronto Marlies edged the San Antonio Rampage 5-4 in American Hockey League action. TORONTO -- Clevelands franchise-record 14-game winning streak was stopped by a big day for Torontos sluggers and a contentious replay call.Initially called out at home during Torontos three-run eighth inning, Ezequiel Carrera was ruled safe after a replay review, and the Blue Jays beat the Indians 9-6 on Saturday despite a cycle by Rajai Davis.Indians manager Terry Francona said he was shocked the call on Carrera was overturned.They keep telling us it has to be conclusive, Francona said. I will look forward to an explanation that I understand. As of now, from what Ive seen, I dont know how they did that.Toronto star Josh Donaldson hit a tying solo shot off Dan Otero in the seventh, and then made it 7-6 with an RBI single in the eighth. Michael Saunders added a two-run double, and Roberto Osuna pitched the ninth for his 16th save.They were fortunate enough to throw the last punch and that was the outcome of the game, Cleveland reliever Tommy Hunter said.Edwin Encarnacion and Troy Tulowitzki also homered for Toronto, which lost 2-1 in 19 innings on Friday, matching the longest game in Blue Jays history. Jason Grilli (2-2) pitched one inning for the win.Davis became the eighth player in Cleveland history to hit for the cycle. He led off the game with a homer, tripled home a run in the third, doubled and scored in the seventh and singled in the ninth.That was very impressive, Francona said. Hes been such a spark for us in so many ways.Carlos Santana also homered for Cleveland, which lost for the first time since a 9-4 defeat at Kansas City on June 15. It had won eight straight on the road.Carrera drew a one-out walk off Otero (2-1) in the eighth and went to second on a base hit by Devon Travis. Hunter came on to face Donaldson, who hit a single into shallow center.Carrera had to hold up to make sure the ball dropped, and was called out by plate umpire D.J. Reyburn. Toronto challenged the call and Carrera was ruled safe after the review.I definitely thought I had him in the leg, Indians catcher Chris Gimenez said. Thee explanation they gave us was his arm got in there before I tagged him.dddddddddddd I dont necessarily think that was the case.Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said his team caught a break by getting the call overturned.We liked what we saw but you never know for sure, Gibbons said.Battling a sore back, Blue Jays starter Marco Estrada allowed three runs and five hits in five innings, failing to extend his major-league-record stretch of 12 starts of six innings pitched with no more than five hits allowed.I dont know if I can do this again, Estrada said. If it hurts as much as it did today, Im probably going to have to watch the next game.Cleveland, which used Saturdays scheduled starter Trevor Bauer for the final five innings Friday, recalled left-hander Shawn Morimando from Double-A Akron and designated utilityman Michael Martinez for assignment. Morimando then worked 3? innings in relief, allowing two runs and six hits.JOYLESS SIXCleveland lost for the third time in 33 games when scoring at least six runs.BEEN A WHILEThe last player to hit for the cycle against Toronto was Hall of Famer George Brett, who did it on July 25, 1990.TRAINERS ROOMIndians: 3B Juan Uribe left after being hit on the right hand in the sixth. Uribe got an RBI when he was hit by Joe Biagini with the bases loaded. Francona said X-rays were negative but said Uribe may have lost a fingernail. Francisco Lindor came on to play shortstop in the seventh and Jose Ramirez moved to third.Blue Jays: INF Ryan Goins, one of two position players to pitch for Toronto on Friday, was placed on the 15-day DL with a sore right forearm.UP NEXTIndians: RHP Corey Kluber (8-7, 3.50 ERA) pitches on Sunday. He has won back-to-back starts, allowing two runs and six hits in 17 innings.Blue Jays: LHP J.A. Happ (10-3, 3.70 ERA) gets the ball on Sunday. He is 2-1 with a 3.38 ERA in five career games against the Indians, including four starts. ' ' '
