Despite a late flurry of tries by the Tigers, Souths managed to hold on in a gripping game of rugby league! The forwards really led the way and that's why we have selected these two contenders, but now we need your vote!
THOMAS BURGESS
It's no surprise that Thomas Burgess is yet again another nominee for the Player of the Game. He led the way in the middle third of the field and ran for 178 metres (with 98 post-contact metres), made 26 tackles (with 0 misses) and put in a brilliantly-weighted kick to force a line drop-out!
BAYLEY SIRONEN
Bayley Sironen has taken his game to another level since retaining the starting back-row position over the last one to two months.
Last night Sironen ran for 122 metres, made 39 tackles with zero misses. He did an exceptional job at 'tying the middle' whenever the Tigers would turn the ball back under.
