Western Sydney pair Jack Clisby and Brendon Santalab have both defended ugly tackles that drew the ire of Adelaide after their spiteful grand final rematch.Clisby revealed he has reached out to Reds star Cirio over a crunching tackle that could force the midfielder on the sidelines for up to 10 weeks with a knee injury.Adelaide, 2-1 losers in the clash, were scathing of the incident that only drew a yellow card from referee Shaun Evans, and are believed to have requested the official to not control their future games.There was no malice in the tackle. It was just one of those things - its a big game and Im looking to impress, Clisby said on Tuesday.I do wish Cirio all the best. I did message him last night wishing him a speedy recovery. It was never intentional to hurt the player. He appreciated the text.Starting at left back at Coopers Stadium, Clisby was playing his first game in Wanderers colours since shifting from Melbourne City over the winter.He said he wanted to make a strong first impression on coach Tony Popovic.Not in that sort of way though. In playing good football. I feel I did have some good impact on the game. It was a great result for the team as well, he said.I was really excited. Was just keen to get out there and give it my best. I knew i was ready, I just had to wait for my opportunity and it came around. I feel I took it.The 24-year-old will get another chance to impress Popovic when he faces off against in-form Newcastle winger Andrew Nabbout and the Jets on Sunday.It will be the Wanderers first match at Spotless Stadium.Hes a winger, Im a fullback. Its an isolated position. Its usually a one-on-one battle, Clisby said.You always want to win your battles and Im going to be making sure that I can give it the best.Two-goal hero Brendon Santalab also defended his wipeout of Reds star James Holland that also ended in him being booked before scoring twice to claim a famous win.The tackle was definitely late. There was no intent there to hurt James Holland. I feel the ref dealt with it properly. Yellow card and move on, he said.Fergie Jenkins Jersey Cubs .

The injury bothered Bledsoe in the Suns victory over the Clippers on Monday and he sat out the teams home loss to Memphis on Thursday night.Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge has confirmed veteran defender Matthew Boyd will play on next year.Boyd has been steadfast in his desire to extend his decorated career into a 15th AFL season, but was dismayed when contract talks were put on hold by the club.The 34-year-olds case for a new deal was strengthened when he earned a surprise All Australian nod recently - his third - but Beveridge admitted he had reservations about Boyds form earlier in the season.Matthew and I have a very close relationship, close enough for me to be honest with him probably 10 or so weeks ago and for us to decide to leave (contract talks) until a bit later, Beveridge told SEN on Saturday.He wasnt overly happy with that.(But) I dont want Matthew to finish at our club playing for Footscray (in the VFL).

Well be extremely disappointed if thats what transpires. The time is now, he said.As much as theres many of (my players) that are quite young, and people talk about premiership windows, but I just believe if youve got a group whos capable, whos willing to put in the hard work and meet challenges like the Hawks in a semifinal head on, then who says you cant win it?
