My first and second choices were pretty easy. The third choice was a bit more difficult, as there were a number I could have picked.

Ny top spot goes to Dane Laurie. 344 run metres, 109 post contact metres, 9 tackle breaks, 1 try assist. He was out for blood last night and really did a good job getting the Manly defence on the back foot.
Other spots went to Isaah Yeo and Brian To’o backing up from origin. How they performed so well after playing in a 12 man origin side is beyond my knowledge.
If I had two more points they would have gone to Mitch Kenny whose skills are getting better by the week. Some sharp darts from dummy half caught the markers off guard multiple times, on a few occasions picking up a penalty. The other is Paul Alamoti, he has quite a kicking game. Every kickoff was in a tight 5x5 metre square in the back corner, and some of his touches to get the ball out to the wing were amazing.
The combination of Alamoti and To’o is proving to be quite lethal.
