The opening round of the NSWRL competitions has been completed, with several stars slowly making a name for themselves in the junior ranks as NRL scouts keep a close eye on them for the future.
Zero Tackleย reviews the results and examines the top try-scorers, top-point scorers and tables of the Harold Matthews Cup, Tarsha Gale Cup, Lisa Fiaola Cup, Andrew Johns Cup and Laurie Daley Cup.
Andrew Johns Cup
Highlight:ย Central Coast Roosters winger Semi Leweniqila may have produced the best weekend performance with his hat-trick against the Monaro Colts. Leweniqila showed he has what it takes to be a future NRL player, as he easily got past the opposing defenders with his barn-storming runs and could be compared to a younger Semi Radradra.
