Wallabies coach Michael Cheika will touch base with Kurtley Beale on the teams European tour to see if he is ready to exercise a get-out clause in his rich contract with Wasps.Beale has been sidelined with a knee injury in May, which came shortly after his record $2.96 million two-year deal with the English Premiership club was announced.However, he has the option to exit after just one season if he desires.The 27-year-old utility back is in contact with Cheika, who has made no secret of his desire to repatriate as many overseas-based players as possible to boost the depth in Australian rugby.Weve had some discussions over the phone and he came to the match against Argentina in London, Cheika said.Hes back on deck around December for Wasps, so well see what form he gets back into and what decisions are regarding next year or the year after and his contract status, and go from there.Beale has the requisite 60 caps to satisfy the Giteau law and is eligible to represent the Wallabies no matter where he plays, but an early return to the Waratahs would be desirable for Cheika as he continues to reshape the Australian backline.With Beale, Giteau and Rob Horne all out injured, inside centre has been an unsettled position and Cheika has rattled through through a number of different options at No.12 this year in Samu Kerevi, Matt Toomua, Bernard Foley and most recently Reece Hodge.Despite moving Foley back to five-eighth for Australias third Bledisloe Cup defeat last week, Cheika says he is not done yet with his dual playmaker experiment featuring Foley and Quade Cooper working in tandem and will use it when it suits the team tactically.Quades had a good season so far and hes changing his style of game a little bit to fit with the shape were playing, he said.Ive been really quite pleased with what hes done since hes come back.Im sure hes going to have plenty of offer on the tour in whatever role we give him and he will have a clear role in the lead-in to each weeks match.

The Browns coaching search remains incomplete. David Montgomery Jersey Large . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday. HOUSTON -- With one more loss on what initially appeared to be a fortuitously scheduled and perfectly timed homestand, the Astros inched closer to elimination from the postseason and the realization of a golden opportunity squandered.With their 4-3, extra-inning setback, the Astros (82-75) dropped to 1-4 on their seven-game homestand against the Angels and Mariners (83-73), who moved 1 1/2 games ahead of the Astros in the American League wild-card race and two games behind the idle Orioles (85-71) for the second available slot. Houston capped a 5-1 road trip through Seattle and Oakland before returning home with high hopes.Obviously, we came off of a really hot road trip feeling pretty good, Astros manager A.J. Hinch said. Weve played extra innings games, weve played really close games, and they havent gone our way. Thats the way the games go sometimes. Its not as if were out there not giving our best or not coming prepared -- were just not executing at the most critical times. But were going to keep fighting these last five games and see where it takes us, but certainly, its disappointing.Right-hander Mike Fiers (11-8, 4.50 ERA) will make his third start of the season and fourth of his career against Seattle on Tuesday. He has allowed four runs on eight hits and two walks with eight strikeouts over 9 1/3 innings against Seattle in 2016, going 1-0 with a 3.86 ERA. Fiers is 1-0 with a 4.20 ERA in his career against them.Mariners right-hander Felix Hernandez (11-6, 3.61 ERA) willl make his 24th start of the season on Tuesday night.ddddddddddddHernandez did not factor in the decision in his previous outing despite tossing seven shutout innings on Sept. 21 against Toronto.Hernandez is 3-4 with a 4.07 ERA in nine career starts against the Astros including five starts at Minute Maid Park where he has posted a 2-2 record and 5.40 ERA. In his lone start against Houston this season, Hernandez took the loss after allowing six runs (five earned) on nine hits and three walks over 4 1/3 innings on Sept. 16.Unlike the Astros, who dropped 3 1/2 games behind the Orioles with five to play, the Mariners remain optimistic that a series win in Houston and a season-ending homestand against the Athletics just might yield their first postseason berth since 2001.Weve got a chance, Mariners manager Scott Servais said. Thats what weve been playing for and the guys, you can feel it, they really believe. Big game (Tuesday) night. Weve got to keep taking care of business here and hopefully get home for the weekend and still have a chance there. Ive been saying it for a month and a half, its a game at a time and all that other good stuff. These guys believe it. They know whats on the line every night. Weve got to have a little bit better at-bats. Thats probably the most disappointing thing tonight, the strikeout number (16). Weve got to cut that down. ' ' '
