DUBLIN, Ireland -- Ireland coach Joe Schmidt mixed youth and experience by including seven uncapped players in his extended 44-man squad for the Six
Nations on Tuesday.

Jersey . Cardiff Blues forward Robin Copeland is among the new additions,
alongside New Zealand-born prop Rodney Ah You, Robbie Diack, Rob Herring, Martin
Moore and Jordi Murphy. Kieran Marmion is the sole uncapped player in the
backline. "As always, a number of the selections were very tight," Schmidt said.
"There is an experienced core of players in the squad who will offer continuity,
as well as some new additions who have been selected with an eye to the future."
Ireland opens its campaign at home to Scotland on Feb. 2 before hosting
defending champion Wales. Schmidt says Richardt Strauss, Donnacha Ryan, Roger
Wilson, Tommy Bowe, Simon Zebo, Declan Fitzpatrick and Craig Gilroy -- who was
injured in Ulsters victory over Montpellier in the Heineken Cup last week --
have been left out but may return if they recover in time. "A number of players
currently injured or returning from injury will remain with their provinces to
gain further recovery time or game-time," Schmidt said. "Some of these players
may yet return for 6 Nations matches." Sean OBrien, Stephen Ferris, Mike Sherry
and Stuart Olding, though, "will be unavailable in the longer term" and are
unlikely to make the tournament. ------ Extended Ireland squad: Forwards: Rodney

http://www.houstonastrosshop.com/Jeff-Bagwell-Jersey/ . -- Falcons running back Steven Jackson, who has missed the last four games
with a hamstring injury, is expected to practice on Wednesday.Barcelona, Spain
(SportsNetwork.com) - FC Barcelona will not be allowed to sign any players in
2015 after the clubs appeal against a transfer ban was rejected by the Court of
Arbitration for Sport on Wednesday. The Catalan side was handed a 14-month ban
in April after being found guilty of breaching FIFAs rules governing the
transfer of players under the age of 18. Barcelona also had an appeal rejected
in August, but the pending appeal allowed the club to complete the signing of
striker Luis Suarez from Liverpool for $128 million. The panel found in
particular that FC Barcelona had breached the rules regarding the protection of
minors and the registration of minors attending football academies, the court
said in a statement. Accordingly, the FIFA decision is confirmed in full and the
sanction remains in force. In view of the need to issue a decision before the
opening of the next transfer window, the panel has issued its decision without
the grounds. The full arbitral award, with the reasons for tthe panels decision,
will be issued as soon as possible.

Jersey. The errors that the club might have committed, and which have been
recognized and argued before the corresponding authorities, are, in all cases,
of an administrative nature and to a large extent have been caused by the
existing conflict between the FIFA regulations and Spanish legislation, along
with the clubs conviction that it was acting correctly, the club said in a
statement. Therefore, FC Barcelona considers the sanction to be completely
disproportionate as it supposes an excessive punishment for the club, when
considering its trajectory and the circumstances of this specific case.
Barcelona went on a spending spree in the summer while the suspension was on
hold during the appeals process, splashing out more than 117.5 million pounds on
Suarez, forward Ivan Rakitic, goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, defender Thomas
Vermaelen, goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, defender Jeremy Mathieu and midfielder Alen
Halilovic.
