Former Socceroos captain Paul Okon will coach the Central Coast Mariners for at least the next two A-League seasons.Okon assumes the full-time role at the Mariners from Tony Walmsley, who was sacked this month after the team won just three games in the past season to finish last.It means Okon, who has previously coached the Australian under 20s, will have just five weeks to turn the team around before their opening A-League game of the season against Perth on October 8.But he wont have the services of assistant coach John Hutchison, who has parted ways with the Mariners following 12 years at the club.The announcement on Monday came only hours after Okons appointment.Hutchison made 228 A-League appearances as a player for Central Coast and captained them to their maiden championship in 2013.He then moved into a coaching role at the club where hes been since their inception.Central Coast said in a statement that Hutchison has reached a mutual agreement with the club that will see him pursue other opportunities.Okon, meantime, say he isnt concerned about the quick turnaround he has to get the Mariners ready for the new season.One thing that Ive learnt to accept and do my best with at a national team level has been preparing players with limited time so its not new to me at all, Okon said.Its a part of what Ive been doing for four and a half years.Any coach will tell you that they dont have enough time but Im happy with five weeks and confident that the type of football I want to play, I will be able to get across before round one.Okon played 28 matches for the Socceroos, and returned to Australia to play in 2006 with the Newcastle Jets.He then held an assistant coaching role at Gold Coast United in 2008, and has since played a key role in the nations youth teams.Mariners vice chairman Peter Storrie said they had received more than 60 applicants for the role, but saw Okons knowledge of youth as key in turning the Mariners around.In Paul we have an outstanding candidate that covers all areas for us, Storrie said.His extensive knowledge of young players across the country, understanding of the Hyundai A-League and understanding of the Central Coast Mariners were crucial decision making factors.Okons appointment also comes with the endorsement of Socceroos head coach Ange Postecoglou and the clubs football advisor Harry Redknapp.(Redknapp) also played an important role in the recruitment process and agreed with our final decision to appoint an Australian coach compared to the raft of overseas candidates who applied for the position, Storrie said.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Its time to find out if the San Francisco defense is for real.The 49ers dominated the Los Angeles Rams 28-0 on Monday night, but handling Case Keenum is one thing. Cam Newton is a completely different beast.Carolinas dual-threat quarterback figures to be a better barometer for the 49ers, wholl travel cross-country to face a Panthers team that averaged more than 31 points per game last season and finished 10-0 at home, including two playoff wins.Stopping Superman has been on Chip Kellys mind all week.The first-year 49ers coach expressed surprise Newton ran 11 times against the Broncos, and said he amped-up preparation for the games toughest running quarterback because of that.Cam is unlike any other quarterback in the league, Kelly said. Hes a second running back back there. You know and the size of him, its like Eddie George that can throw. You know, its a tough task for any defense. Defending the Panthers (0-1) is even tougher now that wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin is back.The 6-foot-5, 250-pound receiver has already re-established himself as Newtons favorite target. He was thrown to 12 times against the Broncos and finished with six catches for 91 yards and a touchdown.Newton said now he needs to find ways to get wide receivers Ted Ginn Jr., Devin Funchess and Philly Brown more touches.We have to do it, but not force it, Newton said. When we do that, thats when we become dangerous. When you look back at our run last year (to the Super Bowl) what made us so dangerous is defenses didnt know where the ball was going. We have to get back to that.NEWTONS HEAD: It will be interesting to see if the flags start to fly should any defender approach Newtons head.Newton took four controversial helmet-to-helmet hits in a 21-20 loss to the Broncos and many felt officials didnt do enough to protect the league MVP. Only one of the four hits to the head resulted in a penalty, which angered Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen.Two Broncos were fined by the league this week.They say, `Oh, but he runs the ball so much. Well, every single one of those times he was hit he was playing quarterback, Olsen said. ... (I dont care) if he ran the ball 10 plays in a row as a running back, when he is a passer, he is a passer. Period. Were not saying Cam should get different rules than anybbody else.dddddddddddd Call the rules the same for every single person who is the quarterback.FAVORITE TARGET: Just two weeks after being acquired from Detroit in a trade, receiver Jeremy Kerley quickly established himself as Blaine Gabberts favorite target in San Francisco. Gabbert threw 11 passes to Kerley in the opener, completing seven for 61 yards. Kerley operated mostly out of the slot.Hes savvy, and I dont use that term very lightly because theres a lot of things that go into being a savvy football player, Gabbert said.KEEP HIM CLEAN: After not being sacked at all in the preseason, Gabbert was not brought down once in the opener despite playing a Rams team that features one of the leagues top defensive lines. Gabbert got rid of the ball extremely fast, holding the ball on average for less time than all but one quarterback in Week 1, according to Pro Football Focus.Blaine understands where his issues are protection-wise and getting the ball out and receivers running the right routes so he can get the ball to them, offensive coordinator Curtis Modkins said.PANTHERS RUN GAME: The Panthers are expecting running back Jonathan Stewart to play, but its worth keeping an eye on the right ankle he injured in the opener. Stewart has had problems with his ankles before and the Panthers cant afford to lose him.Carolina has run for at least 100 yards in 33 straight games if you include the last five NFL playoff games.SHORT WEEK: While the Panthers got extra time off after opening the season last Thursday, the Niners have a quick turnaround -- and a cross-country flight -- after playing the late Monday night opener. To compensate for the short preparation time, the coaches spent part of Sunday and Monday breaking down Carolinas film from its opener even before San Francisco played its first game.Youve got to turn the page pretty quickly and right in our (Tuesday) afternoon meetings we started preparing for Carolina, and started to get a jump start on the film because weve got a little catching up to do, Gabbert said.---AP Sports Writer Josh Dubow in San Francisco contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
