Loughborough Lightning centre Jade Clarke is leave the Vitality Netball Superleague team to join ANZ Championship side Adelaide Thunderbirds. Clarke, who started Mondays defeat to Manchester Thunder, will return to Australia, where she had a successful five-year spell between 2010-15.The former England captain will link up with the Thunderbirds ahead of their 2016 season, which starts in April, meaning she will be available for another three games of Lightnings campaign, with her final appearance coming in the away game with Team Bath on March 4. Adelaide made their move for Clarke as a replacement for Renae Ingles, who recently confirmed her pregnancy, and Loughborough head coach Karen Atkinson admits it is a big blow to lose the mid-courter.I am devastated for the team that this has happened mid-way through our 2016 campaign. It is a big pull for any player to play in the ANZ but I had hoped the decision would have been a different one, she said.Naturally a player of Jades calibre is a loss to any team, but we wont let this distract us from our goal, which is to finish in the top four and challenge for the NSL title. Highlights from Mondays Vitality Superleague clash between Loughborough Lightning and Manchester Thunder Loughboroughs executive director of sport John Steele admitted Lightning did not want to block the opportunity for Clarke but could not hide his disappointment at how events transpired.Our player centred development philosophy means we will support any individual to gain the most from every opportunity available and have therefore agreed to release Jade, Steele told the Loughborough Sport website.However we are extremely disappointed with the way Adelaide Thunderbirds have conducted themselves. Approaching one of our players directly, midway through the season has been very disruptive and has put our player in a difficult position. Our focus now is to ensure we have the best possible support structure in place for our squad as we move forward with our 2016 season. Get a Sky Sports Day Pass Dont miss the Super League.

LANDOVER, Md. -- Kirk Cousins and the Washington Redskins had their easiest path to the playoffs in front of them and they gave it away with another Monday night flop.Cousins threw an interception and lost a fumble near his goal line, and the Redskins lost control of their playoff future with a 26-15 loss to the defending NFC champion Carolina Panthers.Washington (7-6-1) could have clinched a playoff berth by winning its final three games but now needs help. Carolina (6-8) kept its astronomical wild-card hopes alive and dealt a serious blow to the Redskins chances with two weeks left in the season.We didnt get it done, said wide receiver DeSean Jackson, who had seven catches for 111 yards. Obviously its frustrating because we knew what we had at stake, we knew what we had on our hands and we cant really talk about playoffs until we handle who we need to handle and play better.After being picked off by Kurt Coleman in the first half to set up a Carolina field goal, Cousins was sacked by Wes Horton and fumbled on the first snap after halftime as the Panthers took over at the 1-yard line. They scored two plays later to take a 20-9 lead.Cousins finished 32 of 47 for 316 yards with far too many missed throws in a game with such high stakes. Cousins and coach Jay Gruden were at a loss to explain how the usually high-powered offense sputtered at such a key moment.We just never got any kind of rhythm whatsoever throughout the whole game, said Gruden, referencing his team going 2 for 12 on third down. Part of it was the running game was atrocious, part of it was we had no deep passing game and then the other part: Carolina was very good today.Reigning league MVP Cam Newton showed no ill effects from a shoulder injury suffered last week, throwing for 300 yards and two touchdowns.He took a little bit of a shot early on, but when he came to the sideline and had a chance to take a breath he was ready to roll, Carolina coach Ron Rivera said.The Panthers took advantage of blunders by the Redskins, who lost their sixth consecutive Monday night home game. It was Washingtons most lopsided loss since being routed 38-16 by Pittsburgh in the season opener, also on a Monday night.ddddddddddddWe didnt play well enough to win, Cousins said. Just didnt make enough plays.FLAGS FOR 15Newton was penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct in the second quarter for taunting Redskins linebacker Trent Murphy after scrambling for a 1-yard gain. The penalty took the Panthers out of field goal range, moving the ball from the Washington 26 to the 41.Ive got to be better than that, Newton said. That just cant happen on my part.Redskins tight end Jordan Reed took an even costlier penalty late in the third quarter when he was flagged 15 yards and ejected for throwing a punch at Coleman. That penalty contributed to Washington settling for a field goal when trailing by 14.BLACK AND BLUE REDSKINSThe Redskins lost linebacker Ryan Kerrigan to a left elbow sprain, cornerback Quinton Dunbar to a concussion and special teams contributor Houston Bates to a left knee sprain. They were already without linebackers Will Compton because of a knee injury and Sua Cravens because of an upper-arm injury.NOTEWORTHYPanthers K Graham Gano made four field goals but missed from 38 to end his streak at 13 in a row. ...
