He appeared to be a bad egg.Now, Kalyn Ponga looms as a potential saviour for an injury-hit North Queensland ahead of Friday nights NRL semi-final against Brisbane in Townsville.Days after becoming embroiled in an alleged egg throwing incident, teenager Ponga is firming to feature in the grand final re-match after training on Thursday as cover for winger Antonio Winterstein (ribs).In a move that left some shellshocked, Cowboys coach Paul Green admitted 18-year-old rookie Ponga and another egg-gate member Tautau Moga were on standby.But it emerged late on Thursday that Ponga was all but locked in to become just the sixth player to make their first-grade debut in a final in 30 years after news that Winterstein was battling to recover.It would cap a remarkable turnaround for either player.The pair were among five Cowboys charged with two counts of wilful damage after allegedly being caught by police throwing eggs at passing cars last week in Townsville.Moga and Jason Taumalolo were fined $2500 by the Cowboys while all five players agreed to pay for any damage to vehicles.The players are due to appear next month in Townsville court.However, Ponga or Moga might help a depleted North Queensland against their old enemy Brisbane.He (Ponga) trained with the boys along with Tautau Moga, Green confirmed on Thursday.Its a big game, a big occasion, but we will make that decision if we have to.At this stage, we are hoping Tone (Winterstein) will be right but there are a couple of options there.Ponga might not have played a NRL game yet but is already considered one of the codes hottest properties.He has already been named fullback in the NRL under 20s Team of the Year for 2016 and is expected to take out player of the season honours.The Cowboys under 20s star has also become embroiled in an eligibility tug of war between Queensland and New Zealand after being dubbed the next Johnathan Thurston.A question mark emerged over his allegiances after he opted not to play in this years Junior Test at Parramatta after both the Junior Kangaroos and Junior Kiwis revealed they wanted to pick him.Not that Green wanted to put any more pressure on Ponga.Asked if Ponga was poised to become a star of the future, Green said: I dont like putting tags on young players.I dont think it does anyone any good.It just puts more pressure on kids.He is developing nicely but I am not going to put tags on him.Cheap Shoes Black Friday .

This time, it was their two best players who went down.Yoenis Cespedes and Noah Syndergaard were removed early from Friday nights 3-1 loss to the rival Washington Nationals, only hours after New York announced that struggling pitcher Matt Harvey will have season-ending surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome.I guess its part of the game. Ive never had it in such mass before, to where its every day. Its hard to walk into this room because the conversation is about who got hurt tonight, manager Terry Collins said. As you guys know, Im a little tired of talking about it. Thats my job to talk about it, but Im running out of things to say and were running out of bodies.Cespedes was pulled after three innings with a strained right quadriceps and said he hopes to return after the All-Star break next week. The slugger got hurt chasing Daniel Murphys RBI double to deep center field in the third and was replaced by Juan Lagares in the fourth.With his velocity dropping, Syndergaard (9-4) exited in the fifth with arm fatigue that was not elbow-related, the Mets said. The big right-hander has been pitching with a bone spur in his right elbow that he called pretty insignificant.His arm went dead. Hes got a tired arm and (his) stuff went away, Collins said. But he said theres no pain.Cespedes and Syndergaard were selected for the All-Star Game in San Diego, but both are unlikely to participate, Collins said. They are expected to be examined Saturday.Collins will manage the National League squad Tuesday and said before Friday nights game that Syndergaard would definitely pitch in the Midsummer Classic, a pledge that lasted just a few hours.Its disappointing, but there will be a lot more, Syndergaard said. Its a long season, you put a lot of wear and tear on your body, just right now I think I need a little break.Already on the disabled list for well more than a month now are first baseman Lucas Duda and third baseman David Wright. Not to mention right-hander Zack Wheeler, making a slow recovery from March 2015 Tommy John surgery.Wright is almost certainly out for the season following neck surgery to repair a herniated disk. Duda isnt expected back anytime soon, and theres no longer a timetable for Wheelers return following a few setbacks in his rehabilitation program.We just have to keep going. As Ive told you before, nobody in baseball feels sorry for us, Collins said.With two outs in the fifth aand a 2-2 count on Jayson Werth, Syndergaard stepped off the rubber.dddddddddddd He was throwing his sizzling fastball in the high-90s (mph) earlier in the game, but his first two heaters to Werth clocked 93 mph.Didnt have that late life, that little bit of extra whip at the end. I could tell something wasnt necessarily right, Syndergaard said.Mets catcher Rene Rivera visited the mound and then went back behind the plate before Collins and assistant trainer Brian Chicklo came out of the dugout, drawing groans from the crowd.Syndergaard waved his glove in their direction as if to shoo them away, but after a meeting on the mound, he walked back to the dugout with Chicklo.I feel like I could have finished the inning out, Syndergaard said. I think I was still spotting up, but just, Id look at the radar gun and see 93, 94 (mph). Its pretty uncharacteristic of me.Seth Lugo relieved with New York trailing 3-0 and was given all the time he needed to warm up. The rookie right-hander tossed two hitless innings.I didnt feel any pain, no discomfort, just fatigue, really, Syndergaard said. I just think its that time of the year -- my first full season in the big leagues. Ive thrown a lot of pitches. Ive thrown a lot of innings.He reiterated that the issue had nothing to do with his bone spur.It all boils down to a little shoulder fatigue, Syndergaard said. I felt like it was probably building up throughout the game a little bit. ... I got checked out after the game when I got pulled out, and no concerns from the doctor.Stephen Strasburg (12-0) threw seven innings of two-hit ball and Clint Robinson hit a two-run homer for the Nationals, who extended their NL East lead to four games over the Mets after New York won the opener of the four-game set Thursday night.Jonathan Papelbon earned his 18th save.It was the first matchup between Syndergaard and Strasburg, who is 3-0 with a 1.83 ERA in three outings against the Mets this year.The start was delayed 37 minutes by rain.TAKE THAT!Murphy, booed again by the Citi Field crowd of 35,030, has hit safely in all 11 games against the Mets since they let him leave as a free agent in the offseason. Hes batting .409 with 15 RBI and five of his career-high 15 homers vs. New York.UP NEXTMax Scherzer (9-6, 3.21 ERA) pitches Saturday night against RHP Logan Verrett (3-5, 4.01), who starts in place of Harvey.
