Spotlight – Paul Carter
Playing in just his fifth first grade game for the Rabbitohs, Paul Carter made his presence felt on both sides of the ball – as well as on the scoreboard – against the Roosters on Sunday. The 180cm forward grabbed a try in the 18th minute for the Rabbitohs by taking a high-ball on his fingertips close to the line before falling over it to score one of the tries of the afternoon. Carter also topped the tackle count with 37 tackles while also coming third in the side when it comes to metres gained (145m).
