Releases » st year, the Als lost their head coach Marc Tre

Alouettes GM and head coach Jim Popp revealed that two NFL teams have called him about job possibilities in 2014. Popp would not name the clubs and issued only a, "no comment" about whether or not theres been progress in him returning to Montreal in the dual role he has worked since returning to the CFL in 1996. “It hasnt been as busy as the last two off seasons,” Popp admitted. Popp later clarified to TSN on Friday that while his representatives received calls, he has not spoken to any teams. He also said he has not interviewed or spoken to anyone about other jobs. At this time last year, the Als lost their head coach Marc Trestman to the Chicago Bears while Popp interviewed for a job with the Panthers, having also been considered for employment with the Eagles and Colts. Popp says he has interviewed prospective coaches for the coming season since the team still needs a new offensive coordinator and may have spots for as many as three other newcomers to the staff. Popp is in New York for Super Bowl weekend and admitted hes rooting for the Seahawks because of a home town connection with Seattle guard JR Sweezy. “Hes from my hometown Mooresville, North Carolina and I helped get him a scholarship,” Popp told the TSN 690 Morning Show with Price, Starr and Moffat. “Small world, Marc Trestman was on the staff at NC State at the time.” Sweezys mother Susan works for the Alouettes as Popps executive assistant from her North Carolina home and her son was on the Alouettes negotiation list before becoming a fixture on the offensive line that protects Russell Wilson, who not coincidentally, was once on the Als “neg list” as well.

The 33-year-old Melbourne hooker will win his 49th cap for the Kangaroos in Sundays Ladbrokes Four Nations final against New Zealand at Anfield, where he will be hoping to preserve an unbeaten record in the UK.I drew one in 2009 at the Stoop against New Zealand - I scored the try with two minutes to go, Smith said. Hopefully that record stays intact. I was aware before we left Australia that this could be the last time I play for Australia in the UK.Thats why I was really looking forward to the game last weekend against England [at the London Stadium]. I always enjoy playing up against England. It was nice to go there and play well and just savour the moment.It was a beautiful stadium, a beautiful day and we got a good result. Thats why I held the team back from leaving the sheds for quite a while.

I havent really looked to the future and put an end date on my representative career.dddddddddddd Its a huge year next year, having a World Cup on home soil.I played in the World Cup in 2008 back home when we lost and that was a pretty shallow feeling, losing that trophy in front of our home crowd.I want to give myself every opportunity to be involved in that next year and after that tournaments finished theres a whole off season to think about continuing on the following year. Im still contracted to the [Melbourne] Storm in 2018. Ill probably think about that after next year.
