Whatever happens on the field, Moana Hope is already the AFL womens league player who taught Gillon McLachlan how to dab.Hope announced herself on Wednesday as the first cult figure of the inaugural league, which starts next February.She was among 16 players announced as the marquee signings for the eight clubs.Rather than shake the AFL chief executives hand when she walked on stage at the media conference in Melbourne, Hope and McLachlan greeted each other with a dab.It is a hip-hop move that has become popular as a celebration, particularly in the NFL and NBA.Asked about Hopes personality, McLachlan laughed and replied: You can tell straight away - the dabbing wasnt my idea. I didnt know what dabbing was.Hope would have stood out regardless, given her right arm is covered in tattoos.She grew up in Broadmeadows - Eddie McGuire territory - and naturally will play for Collingwood.McLachlan immediately nicknamed her Mo Swan after the much-inked Magpies Brownlow Medallist.Dane Swans a legend, so Im happy with that, and Im happy to dab any time, Hope said of the obvious comparison.Im just blessed - Im blessed with this opportunity and I cant wait to get started.She said McLachlan acquitted himself well in his dabbing debut.There was a lot of explaining and then there was a lot of practising, she said.He did pretty well for his first time. I think he held it too long, but I was impressed.And like Swan, there is much more to Hope than tattoos and an engaging personality.Mo is a super-talented forward. Shes winning the goalkicking by a long stretch in the VFL, said Melbourne star Daisy Pearce.I dont how many goalkicking awards shes won.Pearce famously said last month she would play for Melbourne or no one else and the midfielder is rapt that the womens marquee signings are now known.Ive been saying for a long time that my face and my story isnt the only story out there, she said.There are some wonderful stories among all those girls who were picked today.They are all really deserving selections.Victoria, which will have four teams in the womens league, and Western Australia lead the way in player development.So rather than concentrate too much talent in the Fremantle side, several top WA players will move interstate.Of the 16 players named on Wednesday, Fremantles pair and seven others are from WA.If they had all remained in the one team, it would have been a very dominant team, Pearce said.For equalisation and the competition, its not a bad thing that a few those girls are looking for opportunities elsewhere.THE AFL WOMENS LEAGUE 16 MARQUEE PLAYERS:ADELAIDEChelsea Randall (25, WA, forward)Kellie Gibson (20, WA, forward)BRISBANETayla Harris (19, Qld, ruck-forward)Sabrina Frederick-Traub (20, WA, ruck-forward)CARLTONBrianna Davey (21, WA, utility)Darcy Vescio (23, Vic, key forward)COLLINGWOODMoana Hope (28, Vic, key forward)Emma King (22, WA, ruck)FREMANTLEKara Donnellan (24, WA, midfielder)Kiara Bowers (24, WA, midfielder)GWSRenee Forth (29, WA, midfielder)Emma Swanson (21, WA, midfielder)MELBOURNEDaisy Pearce (28, Vic, midfielder)Mel Hickey (31, Vic, defender)WESTERN BULLDOGSKatie Brennan (23, Vic, forward)Ellie Blackburn (21, Vic, midfielder)Air Jordan 6 Wholesale . -- James Young couldnt wait to apply those tweaks to his jump shot, and the first one he made against UT Arlington told him it could be a good night.

Air Jordan 6 Retro For Sale . - Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie never doubted he would bring back coach Dennis Allen for a third year despite back-to-back 4-12 records. Cheap Air Jordan 6 Retro . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.Group ADeepak Hooda converted his third successive century into a mammoth 293 not out, his best score in first-class cricket, to flatten Punjab at Feroz Shah Kotla. The 21-year old Baroda captains maiden double-century included 25 fours and six sixes. He had resumed on 190 on the second day and batted through the rest of the innings to finish with a strike-rate of 82.76.Hooda could well have had his first triple-century - and the fourth of this season, there have only been four rounds - but Munaf Patel, having hung in for 57 minutes and 29 balls, contributing one run to the final-wicket stand of 63, fell in the last ball of the 140th over from Shubek Gill. Hoodas 293 was the second-highest score in Barodas history.Baroda were dismissed for 529, with Sandeep Sharma taking 4 for 101. Punjab had 35 overs to last until stumps. They lost Jiwanjot Singh in the 10th over, but the other opener Manan Vohra ensured there were no further losses with an unbeaten 67.A first-innings lead of 100 became extremely handy for Bengal as 15 wickets fell on the second day in Dharamsala. Railways, who resumed their first innings on 37 for 4, were bowled out for 105 as seamer Ashok Dinda picked up 5 for 45 bowling 14 out of the 27.3 overs in the innings. It was his 19th five-for and second in as many matches. Seven of the Railways batsmen suffered single-digit scores and had it not been for their captain Karn Sharmas 40 off 26 balls, they may not even have got a total above hundred.Bengals batsmen were a lot more sturdy with Wriddhiman Saha and captain Manoj Tiwary making 44 and 48 respectively to help build the lead to a considerable 308 by stumps. They only have oone wicket standing though thanks to the Railways seamers Deepak Bansal and Karan Thakur, who picked up 3 for 40 and 3 for 39.ddddddddddddN Jagadeesan became the first player from Tamil Nadu to score a century on debut in eight years as his team continued their run-scoring spree in Cuttack. He was unbeaten on 118 having faced 196 balls, with eight fours and two sixes. Madhya Pradesh had been flogged for 547 runs over the course of 174 overs with only seven wickets as compensation. This after they had dismissed both Tamil Nadu openers for ducks on the first day.The revival was led by Kaushik Gandhi, who having been on 71 overnight, completed his maiden first-class century. He finished with 157 off 368 balls with 24 fours. B Indrajith was one of only three wickets MP were able to take on the second day, but not before he had scored his third fifty-plus score in three innings.Proceedings were rather slow in the other match in Delhi, where Uttar Pradesh ground out 147 runs at a run-rate of 2.19 against Gujarat. One of the overnight batsmen Mohammad Saif scored 4 off 51 balls. The bulk of their runs came from the openers - Tanmay Srivastava made 45 off 148 balls while his partner Samarth Singh got to 50 off 101 balls to go with his 187 in his last innings. UP still trail by 200 runs. Gujarats batsmen deserve credit for that, not least their resilient 10th wicket pair. Chirag Gandhi (87) and Ishwar Chaudhary (13) got together when the score was 284 for 9 to took it to 347. UP fast bowler Imtiaz Ahmed picked up 5 for 73. ' ' '
