Canberra coach Ricky Stuart has vowed not to talk wrestling ahead of his sides NRL grand final qualifier against Melbourne next Saturday.The Raiders are now just 80 minutes away from a first grand final appearance in 22 years after holding off a fast-finishing Penrith 22-12 at GIO Stadium on Saturday night.And Stuart was not only delighted with his teams courageous effort, but was particularly effusive of the officiating compared to their previous weeks loss to Cronulla.What pleased me today was that it was ten metres and there was an interpretations in the ruck. Thats what pleased me, because youre allowed to play football, he said post-game.However, Stuart was quick to distance himself from any criticism of the Storms defensive tactics, which came under scrutiny from North Queensland coach Paul Green two weeks ago.Bellamy, who was a teammate of Stuarts at the Raiders between 1988-92, angrily dismissed Greens comments as predictable before his team claimed the qualifying final win.Im not one of those coaches whos going to come out and start having a shot about wrestle, which seems to happen every time some team plays against Melbourne, not at all, Stuart said.Last week, there was no interpretation about the ruck, last week there was no ten metres.And when youre a football team like ours that want to play with the football and enjoy attacking flow, the interpretations didnt allow it last week.Saturdays win over Penrith continued a dream run for the Raiders, who became the last of the 16 teams in the competition to progress through to the preliminary final in the NRL era.Next weeks anticipated final at AAMI Park will also be Stuarts first visit to a grand final qualifier since leading the Sydney Roosters to consecutive preliminary final games in 2003-04.However he warned his team that another 20-minute fadeout, like the one that allowed Penrith into the game on Saturday night, will be suicide against the minor premiers.We made it so much more difficult on ourselves by being too arrogant with the football. If were like that against Melbourne, well get touched up, he said.Melbourne are ruthless, and take advantage of teams error and they a take a huge advantage of teams making poor fundamental mistakes like we did tonight.

With the other three division series completed in just 10 games, it fell to the Dodgers and Nationals to stage a winner-take-all matchup. Los Angeles helped increase the possibility of a Game 5 -- perhaps to the detriment of winning the series, if you believe some pundits -- by giving the Game 4 starting assignment to Clayton Kershaw.That means theyll be sending Game 2 starter Rich Hill to the mound Thursday night. Because of Saturdays rainout in Washington, hell also be going on short rest as Kershaw was on Tuesday. While Hill threw just 82 pitches on Sunday, thanks to blister issues he nursed the second half of the season, Hill threw more pitches than that in only three other games since the All-Star break. Manager Dave Roberts almost certainly has Hill on a short leash with alternative starter Julio Urias and the entire bullpen ready for action.On tthe other end of the usage spectrum, the Nationals would love to see Max Scherzer pitch at least eight innings, if he doesnt run into trouble.dddddddddddd In his Game 1 loss, Scherzer got through six innings as the Dodgers were able to coax nearly four pitches per plate appearance, despite drawing zero walks.Any time a postseason series goes the distance, we ask our Vegas handicappers here at Chalk for their thoughts on the game.
