Sean McMahon has crashed Queenslands grand farewell for a host of departing Reds stars, leading the Melbourne Rebels to a nail-biting 31-28 Super Rugby victory on Friday night.The Wallabies back-rower played like a man possessed in his return from injury, scoring a first-half double and setting up another try as the Rebels held on despite a late Reds comeback fuelled by two gallant tries from Liam Gill.Gill, Greg Holmes, Ben Daley, Saia Faingaa and Curtis Browning were all playing their last games for the Reds, with all five moving either interstate or overseas next season - and the talk all week was that their teammates wanted to send them out on a high note.Instead they produced arguably their worst half of a rotten season as the Rebels scooted to a 24-7 halftime lead, which eventually proved unassailable.Only 14,126 were on hand at Suncorp Stadium on a hollow night for the Reds, more evidence of how much work they have to do both on and off the field to return as a rugby force.Melbourne were saying goodbye to one of their own, foundation player Luke Jones, who will play for French club Bordeaux next year.It took them just 102 seconds to hit the scoreboard as McMahon broke free to set up winger Tom English, who blew past Queenslands left-side defence on his way to the line.A Jack Debreczeni penalty made it 10-0 soon afterwards, before Nick Frisby provided the Reds reply from the back of the scrum to narrow the margin.But McMahon, who ran for 112m in the first half alone, then struck for his two tries, both coming in the space of five minutes - the first after breezing through Reds front-rowers Andrew Ready and Sef Fagaase, the second on the back of a bullocking run from prop Toby Smith.Gill scored his first in the 48th minute and then the Reds comeback looked on nine minutes later, when a smart inside ball from Frisby set up star centre Samu Kerevi to score next to the posts and make it 24-21.But Duncan Paiaauas attempt at a clearing kick from only a few metres in front of Queenslands defensive tryline was charged down by Nic Stirzaker, who gathered the scraps and then touched down to score a moment later.Gill produced more magic from the back of the ruck in the 69th minute to keep the Reds in touch, but try as they might the Reds couldnt find another.Holmes, who departs as Queenslands second-most capped player of all time, said the defeat wont take the gloss off his career with the Reds.Ive got over 10 years of memories here, he said. You remember the bad ones as much as the good ones.We didnt get a result tonight but thats nothing in the bigger scheme of things. Im just very pleased and happy with what Ive achieved here.McMahon said he was stoked to finish the season with his first career double and believes the Rebels are making firm progress as a side.Theres definitely positive signs, every year weve gotten better and better and next year were going to keep building and hopefully we will be a finals side, he said. http://www.dolphinsrookiestore.com/ . Argentina winger Ezequiel Lavezzi and France midfielder Blaise Matuidi scored, with star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic setting up both despite having a poor game by his high standards. Forward Eduardo gave Ajaccio the lead in the sixth minute after being set up by right winger Benjamin Andre, and the Corsican side looked comfortable in the first half, with the lively Johan Cavalli causing problems with his probing runs from midfield. http://www.dolphinsrookiestore.com/Dolphins-Cameron-Wake-Jersey/ .

A strong defensive display earned Munster an opening Guinness Pro12 victory over a disappointing Scarlets at Parc y Scarlets.Scarlets had much more of the possession and territory but Munster emerged winners by two tries to one.The Irish sides tries came from prop James Cronin and wing Ronan OMahony with outside-half Tyler Bleyendaal kicking 10 points and Ian Keatley adding a penalty in the 23-13 victory. Scrum-half Gareth Davies claimed Scarlets only try with outside-half Rhys Patchell kicking eight points.Patchell, South African prop Werner Kruger and 19-year-old number eight Josh Macleod all made their debut for Scarlets with Wales centre Jonathan Davies coming off the bench in the second half after rejoining the region from Clermont Auvergne. In all Scarlets named 11 internationals in their 23-man squad.Centre Dan Goggin made his first start for Munster, who also included full-back Simon Zebo and flanker Tommy ODonnell.Despite a wealth of possession for Scarlets and a lot of mistakes from Munster at line-outs and restarts, it was the Irish side who went in at half-time with a 17-10 lead.Scarlets spent most of the first quarter in Munsters half but could not get on the scoreboard with Patchell missing an 11th minute penalty goal attempt.Munster suffered a setback when Zebo was forced off with a rib injury but with their first visit into Scarlets 22 they scored with Cronin getting the ball down under the posts for Bleyendaal to add the conversion.Scarlets got some points on the board witth a Patchell penalty on 27 minutes but three minutes later OMahony ran through a huge gap to claim Munsters second try.dddddddddddd Bleyendaals conversion made it 14-3 on the half-hour mark.Scarlets needed something special to get back in the game and they got it with a quick tap penalty deep in his own half from Davies, who broke free kicked ahead and reclaimed the ball to score the try, which was converted by Patchell.But Munster had the final say of the half when Bleyendaal kicked a penalty two minutes before the break.The South African missed a relatively easy penalty attempt at the start of the second half, while Patchell found the target with his own penalty shot on 48 minutes to reduce the deficit to four points.But Scarlets continued to have no answer to Munsters strong defensive effort and on 54 minutes Bleyendaal restored his sides seven-point lead with his second penalty kick.And any chance Scarlets had of getting back in the game seemed to go when a Scarlets penalty was reversed after lock Lewis Rawlins dropped the shoulder at a ruck. Keatley stepped up to kick the long range penalty to extent Munsters lead to 10 points.In the final minute Patchell missed a penalty which if he had converted it would have earned Scarlets a bonus point. It was Scarlets third successive home defeat after they lost their final two matches at Parc y Scarlets last season.
