[Eels Dude]

Why not just award the premiership after 6 rounds :sarcasm:

 

[BWNB]

Odd to see QLD frontrow, but the rest of the pack NSW players. Nice to see a Kiwi contingent in the backline too!

SBW & Mateo would be close.

.
Ropati played the whole game in round 1 - only 60 minutes of the round 2 game - missed round 3,4,5 and played the whole of round 6. Has what he has done on the field in that MINIMAL time been that good for you to rate him as one of the BEST centres of the first six rounds???? Really.

 

[bluesbreaker]

Buderus has been the best hooker in the comp by a mile.

 

[NK Arsenal]

Yep, Bedsy has been a machine.

Jesse Royal has been one of the top props so far. doesn't get the accolades but has been the best performer in a Knights pack that has won every contest. fantastic ruck defender and good offload.

oh, and Bedsy has been the best hooker by a long long way.

 

[steven_tiger]

Chris Heighington would be close to a second row spot.

 

[Tunguska]

Chris Heighington would be close to a second row spot.

i don't know how anyone would have cam smith over buderus based on this years form thus far. call me bias, i really don't care... bedsy has been in far better form.

[shear_joy9]

for those who have put purtell in, you must only be watching the top try scorers table, not canberra's games.
