Warren Gatland will coach the British & Irish Lions on their tour of New Zealand in June hoping hope for a repeat of their 2013 success when he masterminded the tourists famous series win on Australian soil. Willie Roaf Jersey . In Scrum Sevens, we look at the men he follows in coaching the famous side.John Robins (1966)The Wales prop played 17 times for the Lions on their tour of New Zealand and Australia in 1950 and was handed the coaching position for their tour to the same two countries in 1966. Robins was the first appointed coach of the Lions but his role was more as an assistant rather than the all-seeing role the current crop take on. Robins worked alongside the Lions manager Des OBrien and captain Mike Campbell-Lamerton with his skipper leading the majority of training sessions.The Lions fared well against Australia, winning 11-8 and 31-0, but lost all four Tests to the Kiwis -- 20-3, 16-12, 19-6 and 21-11. Lions tourist and Ireland international Ray McLoughlin claimed that they had just 18 supporters cheering on the team in red in New Zealand, a far cry from the current passionate throngs that flock to the other side of the world. The tour was poorly received back in the British Isles but the tourists enjoyed themselves and the party also took in Hawaii, San Francisco, Vancouver, Toronto and New York.Carwyn James (1971)With just two Welsh caps to his name James was a surprise choice to lead the Lions in 1971. But he was a visionary -- something that Wales were yet to appreciate. Instead of rousing half-time speeches, James preferred the more softly-spoken approach and guided players in the right direction rather than ordering them to play in a certain manner. And it worked. They lost their opening match of the tour against Queensland but finished the three-month tour as series winners over New Zealand -- something that is still a feat of its own for the Lions.They took the first Test 9-3 in Carisbrook but lost the second 22-12 in Christchurch. The third Test swung it in the Lions favour with a 13-3 triumph and they then drew the fourth 14-14. The likes of Barry John, Gareth Davies, skipper John Dawes, flanker John Taylor and Mervyn Davies etched their names in Lions folklore but the quiet lieutenant James also deserves praise for his steady hand behind the party.Syd Millar (1974)A veteran of the 1959, 1962 and 1968 Lions tours, Millar was Ireland coach between 1973 and 1975 and took the Lions post for their 1974 tour of South Africa. The Invincibles, as they are now known, won 21 of their 22 matches with the only draw coming in their final Test against the Boks. The four-Test tour saw them win the first clash against the Boks 12-3, the second 28-9, the third 26-9 and then draw the fourth 13-13.Captained by Willie John McBride and under the stewardship of Millar and manager Alun Thomas, the side embraced the physical nature of what the Boks were going to throw at them which led to the infamous 99 call.Millar went on to manage the 1987 World Cup and was inducted into the IRB Hall of Fame in 2009. He has also been awarded the Legion dHonneur and the prestigious Spirit of Sport award for his contribution to the game.Jim Telfer (1983)Telfers working life took in a spells as a head teacher, a chemistry teacher, time as a Scotland international and also the 1966 and 1968 Lions tour but he will probably be best remembered for what is widely perceived to be the best ever speech in rugby. But while he was part of Ian McGeechans coaching set-up for the 1997 tour of South Africa, he was head honcho in 1983. It did not quite go to plan for the Lions side as they replicated the 1966 groups misfortune and lost all four Tests against the All Blacks. They also fell to defeats in two of their warm-up matches with Auckland and Canterbury both beating the tourists.Come 1997 he primarily looked after the forwards and made that famous Everest speech in the run up to their first Test with the Boks. Telfers time in rugby also included spells in charge of the Scotland national side when he led them to the Grand Slam in 1984.Sir Graham Henry (2001)The World Cup-winning coach took charge of the Lions back in 2001 and their tour to Australia failed to live up to the high standards set four years before in South Africa. Henrys tenure was fraught with rumours of tension between the Test side and the midweek team and Austin Healey and Matt Dawsons comments in the press did little to quell the rumours with the latter describing Henry as uninspiring.On the field, the Lions won the first Test against the Wallabies 29-13 but lost the next two 35-14 and 29-23. Henry later reflected on the tour and admitted that he got his approach wrong. My ego got in the way, Henry said. My attitude on that tour was we win at all costs. Winning became too dominant rather than getting to know the players and getting the systems right. You learn from those things.Sir Clive Woodward (2005)Woodward led the Lions on their last tour of New Zealand in 2005 and it resulted in a 3-0 series defeat. He tried to modernise one of rugbys last bastions of tradition and it failed. While his side faced a remarkable New Zealand side -- with Dan Carter putting in one of the games standout performances by any fly-half in the second Test -- it was a tour that never quite got going.They won all of their warm up matches -- bar the clash with the NZ Maoris -- but came up against a different beast when they faced the All Blacks. They lost the first Test 21-3, the second 48-18 and the third 38-19. The 44-strong party -- with 26 backroom staff -- were humiliated by the dominant All Blacks.Sir Ian McGeechan (1989, 1993, 1997, 2009)The man named Geech is the definitive Mr Lions. He played on the 1974 and 1977 Lions tours and was head honcho in the 1989, 1993, 1997 and 2009. He oversaw their 2-1 win over Australia in 1989 but this was followed up by a 2-1 reverse four years later in New Zealand. In 1997, the Lions prevailed 2-1 against the Boks but in 2005 he took charge of the midweek side and not the full Test side under Woodward. Come 2009 and McGeechan once again assumed the position of head coach and brought in the likes of Gatland, Shaun Edwards, Rob Howley and Graham Rowntree to work alongside him. They lost 2-1 to the Springboks but testament to McGeechan is that on every tour he has presided over, his side have picked up at least one Test win.McGeechan has always had an unwavering belief in the value of a Lions tour, amid the ever increasing reliance on sponsorship and commercial avenues in the modern game. When asked about what the Lions meant to him, McGeechan simply said: The Lions are special and unique; you cant compare them to anything else youll do as a player or coach. Terron Armstead Jersey . Clarke was injured while practicing on the Doha Golf Club range after the pro-am on Tuesday. The Northern Irishman arrived at the course on Wednesday hoping to start, but after hitting a few balls on the practice putting green Clarke advised officials he was not fit to play. Alvin Kamara Jersey . -- Ryan Getzlaf grabbed the three pucks wrapped in tape and held them up to his chest in the Anaheim Ducks dressing room for a celebration nine seasons in the making. http://www.cheapsaintsjerseyselite.com/?tag=cheap-clay-harbor-jersey . Speaking Thursday on TSN 1050 Thursday, the Leafs GM also touched on the questions surrounding the teams leadership and the struggles of his big-name free-agent signing. “Its not from lack of effort from the coaching staff.

It was the second consecutive time India had beaten Pakistan in an Asia Cup final, having done so in 2012-13 as well. The win also ensured India remained unbeaten in this years tournament, which was being played in the T20 format for the second time.It was Mithali Raj who set up the win, scoring an unbeaten 73 after India opted to bat and taking them to 121 for 5. The bowlers then sent down economical spells to choke Pakistan in the chase, restricting them to 104 for 6.Raj dominated almost every partnership she featured in. She started off by putting on 24 for the first wicket with Smriti Mandhana, who contributed just 6. After her dismissal, it was the turn of Sabbhineni Meghana to play second fiddle as she made 9 in a second-wicket stand of 44. Veda Krishnamurthy and Harmanpreet Kaur, the India captain, were also sent back for single-digit scores, before Jhulan Goswamis late cameo lifted India. Goswami pinged two sixes on her way to a 10-ball 17 before perishing offf the penultimate ball of the innings. Marcus Williams Jersey. Raj had struck seven fours and a six in her 65-ball knock.Left-arm spinner Anam Amin topped the wickets column with 2 for 24 in four overs, while Sana Mir and Sadia Yousuf were economical in their respective quotas and took a wicket apiece.Pakistan scored at nearly a run a ball during the first half of the chase, but lost three wickets. Goswami had Ayesha Zafar bowled in the fifth over before Asmavia Iqbal fell in similar fashion in the next over, sent down by Shikha Pandey. Javeria Khan added 28 with captain Bismah Maroof, but could not make her start count as she was snuffed out by Ekta Bisht, the left-arm spinner, and Pakistan became 56 for 3. That third-wicket stand was the highest Pakistan could manage as regular wickets stalled them. Nida Dar and Mir made identical scores of 12 not out in late resistance, but both were kept quiet - neither scored a single boundary - as Pakistan fell short.Indias bowlers shared the wickets around. Bisht, who opened the bowling, took 2 for 22. Anuja Patil, Goswami, Pandey and Preeti Bose took a wicket apiece.
