Rob Howley has named the first squad of his second stint as interim Wales head coach, and his selection appears to rubber stamp a few things.Not only has Taulupe Faletau seemingly developed into such an important cog in the Welsh machine that he merits inclusion even when unfit, but that decision may in turn signal the end of Rhys Priestlands career as a Test fly-half.Howleys selection has been shaped to a certain degree by the Welsh Rugby Unions senior player selection policy, which dictates he can only pick three of the seven players playing abroad who are currently caught by it.Priestland may have hoped that Faletaus injury woes would hand him a reprieve but his own battle for form and fitness, allied to Sam Davies emergence with the Ospreys, has presented Howley with the chance to include the No. 8 in the hope that he recovers before the end of November.There is an obvious upside to this call. Faletaus importance to Wales has grown since the last World Cup, and at times it has seemed as though he is capable of winning matches single handedly.As Wales plan for the next tournament in Japan, it is vital that their best players are together for as long as possible in order to build a togetherness that is so integral to the international game.Having Faletau working with the likes of Dan Baker -- who may deputise for him this autumn -- could prove invaluable. At a time when power brokers are haggling over the release of top internationals, it was possibly not an opportunity Howley felt he could pass up.That does not mean it would have been an easy decision. Priestland still has plenty to offer, and had one of his finest performances in a red shirt against Ireland in Dublin last February, when he came off the bench to steer his country to a 16-16 draw.But his move to Bath has come at the wrong time of his career, and playing second fiddle to George Ford on a weekly basis has clearly taken its toll.That Sam Davies has played so well for the Ospreys while Dan Biggar has been away with Wales, has not only put pressure on Priestland but also the current incumbent and the third fly-half in Howleys squad, Gareth Anscombe.It seems highly likely that Biggar will start against Australia on Nov. 5 but Davies inclusion offers Howley and Wales the opportunity to play a more expansive game.Given the choice that is something that many of the thousands of fans who will make the trip to Cardiff next month would like to see. If it doesnt come against the Wallabies then the match against Japan at least offers a chance to experiment.But in that sense, this is a squad that some may feel falls a little short. While there is logic to Faletaus inclusion, James Davies can feel a little aggrieved not to have received a call up, especially given Ross Moriarty will also be unavailable for the visit of Australia.The Scarlets flanker, who tweaked a hamstring against Sale, is a master over the ball but Wales are not bereft of back row options and Howley can call upon Sam Warburton, Justin Tipuric and Dan Lydiate against the Wallabies.That is not the case all over the pitch, and Rob Evans absence highlights the lack of viable alternatives to Gethin Jenkins at loosehead prop. The veteran front row cannot go on forever, and this autumn represents a huge opportunity for Nicky Smith to stake a claim to the No. 1 shirt.Smith is joined in the squad by 11 other Ospreys, but could Sam Parry have made it a bakers dozen? The hooker has started the season in fine form, scoring four tries in seven appearances but misses out to his more experienced club mate, Scott Baldwin.Similarly Alex Cuthbert has been recalled when many were hoping the precocious Keelan Giles would have got the nod.Following only four first-team games for the Ospreys, that call may well have been a little too soon in the wingers development but for some Wales fans it will be interpreted as an indication of the brand of rugby they can expect over the next month.In that sense, the inclusion of Sam Davies can be seen as a beacon of hope.Kobe Bryant Lakers Jersey .Y. -- Canadas Kaillie Humphries and Heather Moyse have another World Cup gold medal after winning the two-women bobsled race on Saturday in Lake Placid, N.

Derek Fisher Lakers Jersey .B. -- The Baie-Comeau Drakkar took over sole possession of first place atop the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League on Thursday with their sixth straight win.CHICAGO -- The soreness finally caught up to White Sox outfielder Melky Cabrera.The veteran switch hitter aggravated a right wrist injury during Chicagos 4-0 loss to Minnesota on Tuesday night and will miss a couple of days with a mild sprain.Cabrera originally hurt his wrist when he tried for a diving catch during a 13-2 loss at Cleveland on June 18. He tweaked it again on a swing in the series opener against the Twins and hit his wrist against the wall while going after Brian Doziers second homer of the game.Its difficult because I want to play, but the doctors said the best for me right now is just to take a rest for a couple of days because I have inflammation there, Cabrera said through a translator. But yeah, for me, I want to play. I dont like to be on the bench. I want to play because the team needs me and I need the team.Cabrera, who is batting .294 with eight homers and 39 RBI in 74 games, had an MRI on Wednesday. He signed a $42 million, three-year contract with Chicago in Decembber 2014.ddddddddddddManager Robin Ventura said he doesnt think Cabrera will need a trip to the disabled list.Its tough, he wants to be in there, he wants to play, he wants to fight through it, Ventura said. But the training staff, the medical staff thinks its better that he sits for three or four days to have that heal.Avisail Garcia got the start in left against the Twins on Wednesday night. While Cabrera could play the field and doesnt notice the injury when he hits from the right side, Ventura said they plan to stay away from him -- leaving the White Sox with just two position players on the bench.You dont like anytime you dont have Melky in there, Ventura said. Hes a switch hitter, middle of the lineup, it hurts to not have him in there. Were going to have to figure out a way to make up for that.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenap ' ' '
