Support for dumped NSW forward Greg Bird has come from the most unlikely of quarters on Tuesday - bitter State of Origin rivals Queensland.The 32-year-old Birds Origin career appears over after he was one of three changes made to the Blues team for Wednesday weeks ANZ Stadium dead rubber.The 18-game Origin veteran forward debuted in 2007 but savoured only one series win in 2014.Veteran Maroons prop Nate Myles thought NSW selectors had pulled the wrong rein.I totally dont agree at all with the treatment of Greg Bird, he said.I think he has been NSWs most respected player over the last five to eight years.As a friend of mine I totally dont think it is the right call.Smith - a former Test teammate of Bird - also lamented his dumping, but backed the Gold Coast Titans forward to bounce back.I have been lucky enough to play alongside Birdy. I love him as a bloke and footy player, Smith said.Its unfortunate he doesnt get another chance - who knows when you get another opportunity.(But) I am sure he will bounce back.Smith also wondered why NSW could not find a place for Matt Moylan in their 17 after Wests Tigers No.1 James Tedesco replaced him as Blues fullback for game three.I feel sorry for Moylan, Smith said of the Penrith playmaker who was dumped after two Origin games.It takes a few games to get the feel for the intensity of the game.I think he is a terrific young bloke and footballer.On Tedesco, Smith said: He is just a different footballer.They are obviously looking for a bit of strike power - and hes got plenty of that.Myles even had a good word for retiring NSW captain Paul Gallen ahead of his final Origin.The pair have had a long running Origin feud which climaxed in 2013 when Gallen launched a flurry of punches on Myles.Veteran Myles looked forward to one last round with the Blues bruiser.Hes a fantastic footballer, Myles said.You always know what you are going to get from him.Thats why he is so good doing what he does.

Darya Domracheva of Belarus was second, 34.Vancouver, BC (Sports Network) - Cascadia Cup play resumes tonight as the Vancouver Whitecaps welcome the Seattle Sounders to BC Place. You can see all the action on TSN and TSN Mobile TV beginning at 11pm et/8pm pt. The two sides faced one another recently as the Sounders earned a 3-2 victory over the Caps at CenturyLink Field on June 8. And while Vancouver came away from the Emerald City with a loss, it did manage to spark a four-match unbeaten run for the Whitecaps. Martin Rennies side followed the defeat at Seattle with three straight victories before earning a hard-fought point from a 1-1 draw at Sporting Kansas City on Wednesday. The Caps were trailing at Sporting Park until the dying minutes of the opening period when Camilo Sanvezzo curled a superb free kick into the upper corner. "It was fantastic," Rennie said of Sanvezzos equalizer. "Thats his 13th goal in the past 14 competitions, which is an incredible rate. He works a lot on his free kicks and that was a fantastic hit. It was a great goal and I dont think there are many people that are going to save that." The fine forward play of Sanvezzo and Kenny Miller has kept Darren Mattocks out of the lineup. But while Miller has not scored since a 4-3 victory over the New England Revolution on June 15, Sanvezzo has made himself indispensable in the starting lineup, even with a quick turnover for Saturdays clash with Seattle. &"I feel very good, but its not just me - its our team," Sanvezzo said after the match.dddddddddddd "Our team is playing very strong. When the team is playing well, that gives me confidence. We are a little tired from this trip, but we have a big game Saturday. Tomorrow and Friday we will do everything we can to get fresh and continue to play well for our supporters." Seattle is in an impressive run of form as well. The Sounders have won three of their last four league contests to climb level with the Los Angeles Galaxy on 24 points, though Seattle has two games in hand. The Sounders earned a 2-0 win over D.C. United on Wednesday thanks to a brace from Obafemi Martins, who became the clubs sole leading scorer this season with the performance. Seattle dominated the match but did not manage to put United away until Martins bagged an insurance goal in second-half stoppage time. "I think tonight was one of those games that you just have to grind out. I dont think it was our best soccer. There were a couple of opportunistic goals," head coach Sigi Schmid told Seattles official website. "Not having played in a while and playing irregularly over the last month, practice is not the same as games, so it takes a while to get your rhythm. I thought we were a little disjointed and its one of those games that you just have to roll up your sleeves and grind out." ' ' '
