The NRL is confident Parramatta will become one of rugby leagues most successful clubs again after the Eels Leagues Club board was replaced with an administrator following NSW State Government intervention.The NSW Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority (ILGA) announced on Tuesday that it would replace the board with a temporary administrator, Max Donnelly of Ferrier Hodgson.Donnelly has previously worked as an administrator with former NRL club North Sydney Bears in 2000.The decision effectively removes the Eels football club board as well. The two boards are mirrors of each other, sharing the same seven directors. Directors must sit on the leagues club board to be on the other.In a media release on Tuesday afternoon the ILGA said it was of the opinion the clubs board had ceased to be effective as a governing body.The board had consisted of chairman Steve Sharp, deputy chairman Tom Issa and directors Peter Serrao, Geoff Gerard, Paul Garrard, Tanya Gadiel and Andrew Cordwell.The decision follows an application by the ILGA and after NSW deputy premier Troy Grant expressed deep concerns about the NRL club and its direction in the wake of the salary cap saga.The ILGA Board wished to make it clear that the appointment of a temporary administrator does not relate to any suggestion of insolvency, the ILGA statement read.The temporary administrator will remain in place until the ILGA board otherwise orders.NRL CEO Todd Greenberg said it was a necessary move.Our only interest is to help Parramatta become a strong and successful club again, Greenberg said.That will only happen if the club has a strong back office with the highest standards of governance.This decision paves the way for the Eels to get back on the right path for the fans, coach and football team.The NRL will work closely with the administrator to make that happen as quickly as possible.The move was welcomed by ClubsNSW.Unfortunately, in recent years the (Parramatta) club has been beset by instability, caused by governance failure, and there is a clear and urgent need for this situation to be rectified, Clubs NSW said in a statement.ClubsNSW shares the concerns of the NSW Government, the football community and Parramatta Leagues members and believes there is a strong case for the appointment of an administrator under Section 41A of the Registered Clubs Act.Such an appointment would ensure the club is placed on a sound governance footing, thereby allowing for a future board to be democratically elected by the Clubs members.We note that this course of action has the support of the Clubs former Chairman Steve Sharp, other directors and the CEO.As the peak representational body for the NSW club industry, ClubsNSW will support the administrator in the work of instituting a governance model that meets community expectations.According to estimates the Parramatta football club will suffer a loss of around $10 million this year, brought about in large part due to the Eels salary cap dramas.The Eels won their last premiership in 1986.

MINNEAPOLIS -- In a championship series filled with stars, Alana Beard sometimes can get lost with so much attention on Minnesotas four Olympians and the two MVPs in Los Angeles.Thats exactly what happened in the closing moments of Game 1 of the WNBA Finals, and Beard hit a jumper from the baseline just before time expired to lift the Sparks to a 78-76 victory over the defending champion Lynx.With the defense collapsing on Candace Parker and Nneka Ogwumike in the paint, Beard found herself all alone in the corner. She took the pass from Chelsea Gray and knocked down jumper with Maya Moores in her face.As the ball splashed through, Moore put her head in her hands, and the Sparks celebrated a thrilling victory, their second on Minnesotas court this season.You may not recognize the importance of her statistically for us a lot of times, Sparks coach Brian Agler said. But her presence, her leadership, obviously how disruptive she can be defensively, and then for her to hit a shot like that, it was incredible.Kristi Toliver scored 19 points to lead Los Angeles and Parker had 14 points and nine rebounds in her finals debut. League MVP Ogwumike added 19 points for the Sparks in the opener of the best-of-five series.Sylvia Fowles had 18 points and 13 rebounds and Lindsay Whalen scored 18 points for top-seeded Minnesota. Moore scored all 18 of her points in the second half to move into first place on the WNBAs career finals scoring list, but the Lynx committed 16 turnovers and got caught scrambling on the final possession of the game.I think we were more worried about not letting anyone get to the hole, Fowles said. Im not sure exactly what happened on that last play to make her get wide open. But we learned from this.There was a time not too long ago when Beards name belonged on the marquee with players Parker and Ogwumike or Lynx stars Moore, Sylvia Fowles, Seimone Augustus and Lindsay Whalen. She was the national player of the year at Duke, the No. 2 overall pick by the Washington Mystics in 2004 and a four-time All-Star before injuries set her back.She re-emerged in Los Angeles as a defensive specialist, but she took center stage in Game 1. Before sshe hit the game-winner, Beard also had a spectacular block of a shot by Whalen and then a steal off an inbounds to set up Ogwumikes bucket for a 76-72 lead.ddddddddddddMoore scored on a coast-to-coast layup to tie the score at 76 with 24.7 seconds to play, but she helped aggressively on Graypen for just her second bucket of the game.I dont think Ive ever hit a game-winner, Beard said quietly. So its pretty cool. Pretty cool.NEW LOOK: In years past these two teams never could have met in the finals because both are in the Western Conference. But the league changed its playoff format this year and seeded all of the teams based on record, not geography. The result in the first year could not have been better for the league with the top two teams throughout the season meeting.I dont
