Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah, two of the most celebrated members of the Wests Tigers class of 2005, go into the weekend with their NRL careers at a crossroads.The Tigers will run on to ANZ Stadium against St George Illawarra on Sunday without Farah in their line-up after he was sensationally dropped to reserve grade by coach Jason Taylor this week.Farah is decried as prickly and difficult to get along with but beloved by Tigers fans for his part in their 2005 grand final win and 247 games of service to the club, and his career is on the line.Taylor insists Farah was axed because he wasnt gelling with young halves Mitchell Moses and Luke Brooks. However, the fact remains the NSW No.9 is fighting for his career at Concord and in the NRL.Should Taylors experiment work and the Tigers show some pluck in the run to the finals, it could spell the end of Farahs career.His axing means he wont be there to celebrate with good mate and Dragons playmaker Marshall, who marks his 250th NRL game against the Tigers.As with Farah, Marshalls future is far from certain. He is off contract at the end of the year and after the Dragons failed in their bid to lure Luke Keary to the club, and rumours of their interest in Corey Norman, the writing appears to be on the wall.Marshalls only hope is to rediscover his brilliant best and reignite the Dragons, who are 10th and clinging to the edge of finals contention after two straight losses.A person thats had that many setbacks and overcome them, the challenges of being such a superstar at such a young age, you certainly have to be mentally tough, Dragons coach Paul McGregor said of Marshall.You dont get shoulder recos from getting out of the way, you get shoulder recos if youre getting in the way.To do what hes done and come back from them and the football hes displayed over a long period of time, at international and club level, is exceptional.McGregor has swung the axe after his side was outscored 68-18 over the last two weeks with outside backs Kalifa Faifai Loa and Tim Lafai dropped for Adam Quinlan and Taane Milne.STATS THAT MATTER:* St George Illawarra are undefeated this season when managing to keep their opponents to 14 points or less.* The Tigers have scored a total of 114 points in the opening 20 minutes of matches this season, which is the most in the competition.* Six of the past eight matches between these sides have been decided by 10 points or more.- Source: Fox Sports Stats Brian Westbrook Womens Jersey .

Soukalova missed only one target and completed the 15-kilometre course in 40 minutes, 32.6 seconds for both victories in this seasons individual discipline. Darya Domracheva of Belarus was second, 34. The New Orleans Saints and Drew Brees agent, Tom Condon, have resumed talks over a possible contract extension, a league source told ESPNs Ed Werder.However, there has been minimal progress so far as the clock ticks down toward Brees self-imposed Sunday deadline.Brees, 37, has repeatedly stressed that he wont talk about his contract anymore once the regular season kicks off with a Week 1 home date against the Oakland Raiders.Brees has just one year left on his current contract. And if an extension isnt reached, he could become an unrestricted free agent next spring. It would cost the Saints nearly $43 million to use the franchise tag on Brees for the third time in his career (a 44 percent raise over his current salary-cap cost of $30 million).Brees became the highest-paid player in NFL history when he signed a five-year, $100 million contract in 2012. However, his $20 million average has been passed up 11 times since then -- including twice by Balltimore Ravens QB?Joe Flacco.ddddddddddddFlacco signed for a record $22.13 million per year in new money in March. Then Colts QB Andrew Luck shattered that mark with $24.6 million per year in new money last month.However, the biggest sticking point in Brees contract will likely be the guaranteed money because of his age. If Brees wants more than $60 million in guarantees like other top quarterbacks, that guarantee him money into his age-39 or age-40 season.Brees is still going strong. He led the NFL in passing for the fourth time in five seasons last year with 4,870 yards in just 15 games played.However, the Saints have not been going strong, with back-to-back 7-9 seasons. And theyll need to decide if they want to re-up with their future Hall of Fame quarterback or reboot.ESPNs Mike Triplett contributed to this report. ' ' '
