Even if North Melbourne lose Saturday nights elimination final, Jed Anderson hopes it doesnt end Brent Harveys long-standing connection with the AFL club.Anderson isnt in denial about Harvey being shown the door at Arden Street or the prospect of the 38-year-old playing on at another club in 2017.But the speedster is upbeat his mentor will consider a seamless transition into coaching next year.Hes been at the club for a really long time and itd be hard to see him go. Id love for him to hang around and help develop us younger boys, Anderson told AAP.We could learn more from him and all the things hes done over the last 20 years.But hell decide what he wants to do. Everyones really grateful for everything he has done.Anderson is nearing the end of his first season at North, having joined the club in last years trade period.The 22-year-old is one of many Kangaroos indebted to Harvey, who boasts a record 431 games of experience at the highest level.Anderson has been picking Harveys brain throughout the year, desperate to improve his own approach.Ive been trying to do all the things he does, watching his vision with him and going over it all. Working out what is going on in his head when he does the things he does on the field, he said.You look at how he finds the footy and what he does with it - its always exciting isnt it?But the other side is how he goes about it. All the little things he does to prepare himself.Hes helping me grow my game and Im trying to adapt and build my game around his position. He does it really well and hopefully in the next few years I can start to grow like hes grown over the course of 20 years.Coach Brad Scott declared no player will be able to fill the void left by Harvey a fortnight ago, when the announced the AFL icon wouldnt be offered a new contract despite his impressive form in 2016.It is a statement Anderson agrees with, having been floated as the closest thing North have to a like-for-like replacement by some judges.Theyre big shoes to fill arent they? Theres a few good small forwards that we have here. Well all need to grow, he said.Andersons more pressing concern is a knock-out clash with Adelaide this weekend.He knows there will be a lot of added emotion as Harvey, Drew Petrie, Nick Dal Santo and Michael Firrito prepare for their final game at North, which will come at some point in the next four weeks.The boys really want to send them out on a high note, Anderson said.

Tony Gonzalez Falcons Jersey . -- Arizona raced out to a big lead and did not back off, hitting the accelerator instead. FORT WORTH, Texas -- After handing TCU its worst home loss under 17th-year coach Gary Patterson, Oklahoma State?head coach Mike Gundy wondered how the committee will view a game from Week 2 that was rife with controversy.The Cowboys could have been playing for something more if they hadnt lost in Week 2 -- and Gundy said he believes thats the case. It remains to be seen whether the College Football Playoff committee and its chair, Kirby Hocutt, feel the same.I know Kirby had mentioned that the committee feels a certain way about that game, Gundy said in Fort Worth. I think Kirbys playing poker and that they see us as a 10-win team. Thats just my opinion.The 9-2 Cowboys lost to Central Michigan?in Week 2 after the Chippewas were incorrectly awarded an untimed down on the final play and subsequently scored on a Hail Mary after Oklahoma State quarterback Mason Rudolph was flagged for intentional grounding on a fourth-down pass as time expired. The MAC officiating crew in Stillwater and the Big 12 replay crew were later suspended because of the errors that led to the winning play.Hocutt, who is alsoo the athletic director at Texas Tech, said last week of the disputed finish that were viewing it as a loss.dddddddddddd Previously, Bill Hancock, executive director of the CFP, said the committee would be well aware of what happened on the field in reference to the Cowboys first loss of the season.Nobody will ever convince me that we didnt get the win, Gundy said Saturday of the 30-27 loss to the Chippewas on Sept. 10.The Cowboys other loss came in Week 4 at Baylor, 35-24.OSUs win over the Horned Frogs was the seventh straight for the Cowboys. Oklahoma State rushed for 334 yards in the 31-6 victory over the Horned Frogs, moving to 9-2 overall and 7-1 in the Big 12. Gundys team is off next week before visiting No. 9 Oklahoma on Dec. 3.Sooners coach Bob Stoops seemed to agree with Gundys sentiment.In my eyes, they only got one loss, Stoops said Saturday night. You know, if you played by the rules.Oklahoma State can win the Big 12 title with a win over its Bedlam rival. ' ' '
