He has already done enough to convince Cameron Smith he could be a future Queensland captain.But it seems Matt Gillett will have to wait a little longer to learn if he has received Wayne Bennetts approval as the next Brisbane skipper.Gillett has been hailed as a potential Maroons captain by Smith, who is expected to lead Queensland until the end of 2018.Such high praise was expected to put him at the head of the queue for Brisbane skipper after Corey Parker retired at seasons end.Yet Bennett wouldnt bite when asked about Smiths stunning appraisal of Gillett.Asked if he agreed Gillett could be a future Maroons skipper, Bennett said: I like what he brings.So would he be in contention for the Broncos captaincy?You will have to wait and see, Bennett said.But he would be a frontrunner, right?If you are wearing a Broncos jersey you are a frontrunner right now, Bennett smiled.Despite the huge rap, Melbourne skipper Smith will be in Gilletts sights at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night.Brisbane will need Queensland backrower Gillett at his best as they look to end a worrying drought of two wins in seven games when they line up against the second placed Storm.Meanwhile, Melbourne are hopeful fullback Cameron Munster (ankle) will prove his fitness ahead of kick-off despite not being named.He has been sidelined the last fortnight.The Storm have won nine of their last 10 games against Brisbane including five straight at Suncorp Stadium.

Curt Schilling Jersey . As the crowd erupted, Davis knocked the ball off the glass and back into his hands. With 1:14 to go in overtime, Davis sixth block also became his 17th rebound. That, along with his 32 points -- which tied a career high -- proved too much for Denver to overcome, and the Pelicans held on for their third straight victory, 111-107 on Sunday night. http://www.diamondbacksteamproshop.com/diamondbacks-zack-greinke-jersey/ . If ever they start actually putting pictures beside words in the dictionary, the Blue Jays left-handers mug will appear beside “Consistency. Custom Arizona Diamondbacks Jerseys . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Jorge De La Rosa Jersey . The native of Mont-Tremblant, Que., captured a World Cup downhill event Saturday, his second this year and fifth career victory on the circuit. The Boomers have been one of Australias greatest Olympic success stories in Rio de Janeiro, with Australians, basketball fans or not, all marvelling at their success.Australia, the world No. 11 team, so far have achieved victories against teams ranked No. 3, No. 5 and No. 6 while also pushing Team USA to the brink.Considered by many to be no more than an outside chance of a medal, the Boomers have proved everyone wrong.This was supposed to be the what if Olympics for the Boomers. What if they had a full-strength side? What if Andrew Bogut was 100 percent? What if Ben Simmons had been selected?Bogut is the talisman for this team, and his play has shown no sign of the knee injury he sustained in the NBA Finals slowing him down.But he is not the only reason for the Boomers relatively smooth progress to the semifinals.Here are five keys to the Boomers success in Rio de Janeiro.BackcourtMatthew Dellavedova and Patty Mills have been the dominant pairing throughout the Olympics. Mills is the second-leading scorer of all players, averaging 21.2 points, behind only Bojan Bogdanovic from Croatia with an average of 25.3, while Dellavedova leads all for assists, averaging 7.7 per game.Mills has been so good that questions now are being placed whether he should replace Tony Parker as the starting point guard for San Antonio Spurs in the coming NBA season.Championship ExperienceThe Boomers boast four players - Bogut, Dellavedova, Mills and Aron Baynes -- who have tasted the ultimate success in the NBA, the same number as the almighty Team USA.Australians have been involved in the past three NBA titles, and that experience is shining through in Rio. Team leader Boguts maturity within the group has notably been at the forefront of the campaign.Heart Labelled underdogs and given a minimal chance to succeed, the Boomers have played with a chip on their shoulder and wanting to prove they belonged on the contenders list.Dellavedova attacks every contest with the ferocity of a footballer, but he isnt the only player in the squad willing to put his body on the lline, as Aron Baynes has shown by drawing multiple charges under the ring, for the good of the team.ddddddddddddBack upsDavid Andersen has been the standout off of the bench, and the 34-year-old who signed recently with National Basketball League team Melbourne United has attracted interest from the NBA.Ryan Broekhoff, notably, is also out to prove he deserves his chance on the big stage, and he has provided valuable minutes off the bench while also stepping in to the starting line-up when Mills was rested.Andrej LemanisCoach is never the easiest job: you shoulder the blame when the team struggles, while the players are praised when the team finds success. The playing group has certainly starred in Rio, but Lemanis has been magnificent during the Olympics.His rotations have been perfect, and on-the-fly changes (such as) during games have proved instrumental. With Dellavedova arguably the player of the tournament, Lemanis is a standout for coach of the tournament.No team is perfect, however, and that is true with the Boomers; while they have looked unbeatable at times, there is a weakness.Offensive reboundingOf the four teams remaining, the Boomers average the equal-lowest number of offensive rebounds per game (10.5). They are equal with Spain but below Serbia (11.3) and the U.S. (14.7). And note the lopsided offensive rebounding battle - 21-8 - when Team USA inflicted upon Australia their only defeat to date.The offensive rebounding battle hasnt proved too costly in the other Boomers games, but the battle of the boards will be a focal point against Serbia. With Serbia holding an advantage on the offensive glass, the Boomers will need to ensure theyre not afforded easy second chance looks in what could turn to be a close semifinal battle.The Boomers should go in full of confidence having already beaten Serbia in Rio, and victory will see Australia guaranteed of their first mens basketball medal in Olympic history.
