Sean OBrien has regained his place at openside flanker for Irelands keenly-anticipated rematch with New Zealand in Dublin.The 29-year-old admitted he did not fully agree with his omission from Irelands historic victory over the All Blacks in Chicago on November 5.OBrien was left out of that game with Ireland fearing the Leinster flanker was not quite 100 per cent ready for Test match intensity following long-term hamstring trouble.Now the bullocking back-rower will start his first Test since Irelands 10-9 defeat to France in February, where his latest injury problems started.Head coach Joe Schmidt has named an otherwise unchanged line-up from the XV that claimed the 40-29 victory over New Zealand, Irelands first win over the All Blacks in 111 years of trying.Josh van der Flier will cover back row from the bench, leaving no spot in the 23 for Peter OMahony. The Munster flankers omission is totally understandable yet also extremely harsh for one of Irelands most committed and trusted performers.We thought it was probably better that Sean start than come off the bench, said Schmidt of his selection of OBrien over van der Flier. He needs to feel himself into the game a little bit, to get a run straight from the warm up into the game.Whereas Josh has been fit and with us for a bit longer. Obviously was in Chicago, spent that time with us and did such a job off the bench, that his versatility and engine at the end of the day might serve us well.OMahony has spent the last few months stepping up his recovery after the knee ligament surgery that cut short his World Cup in 2015. The 27-year-old was deemed not quite ready for the Chicago encounter, and has missed out once again.The influential Conor Murray has beaten a hamstring niggle to start at scrum-half, while fit-again Iain Henderson takes a seat on the bench. Ulster lock Henderson has been given the nod to cover lock from the replacements, with Leinsters young gun centre Garry Ringrose also squeezing onto the bench.We just want to focus on our own performance, try and use Chicago as a reference point. I dont think there was any arrogance or disrespect from them last time. We have huge respect for them, said Schmidt.?I dont think you can get a tougher test. I think they are unhappy obviously, having gone 18 games unbeaten. They were quite outspoken to continue that (winning streak) through to the end of the calendar year and they will want to get back to that.We have shown at times that we have got over that, added Johnny Sexton of Ireland needing to back up the result. Last year we beat South Africa and Australia back to back but that is performance drives. Making sure emotionally and physically we are ready to go.Ireland team to face New ZealandRob Kearney, Andrew Trimble, Jared Payne, Robbie Henshaw, Simon Zebo, Johnny Sexton, Conor Murray; Jack McGrath, Rory Best (c), Tadhg Furlong, Donnacha Ryan, Devin Toner, Stander, Sean OBrien, Jamie Heaslip.Replacements: Sean Cronin, Cian Healy, Finlay Bealham, Iain Henderson, Josh van der Flier, Kieran Marmion, Paddy Jackson, Garry Ringrose.Dante Exum Jazz Jersey .

Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. Charlie Adam scored both of Stokes goals at Britannia Stadium either side of Robin van Persies equalizer, with a miserable day for seventh-place United capped by first-half injuries to centre halves Jonny Evans and Phil Jones that forced them off.

Tony Bradley Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Heres an interesting one. I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks. We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check.In one of the biggest surprises of the college football season, this weeks Texas A&M-Tennessee game has turned into a crucial matchup of unbeaten top-10 teams.Both teams are loaded with big-time players, but we asked Scouts Inc.s Steve Muench and Kevin Weidl to do a mock draft of both rosters. The purpose of this was not to project who would be future Pro Bowlers or Super Bowl winnerrs.dddddddddddd. The goal was to construct a team that would win this Saturday on a college football field.
