  1. James Tedesco (Fullback)

Didn’t reach the heroics of Game I but was still outstanding for the Blues: 7.5/10

  1. Tom Trbojevic (Wing)

Wasn’t flashy but did his job: 5.5/10

  1. Latrell Mitchell (Centre)

The Mitchell v. Inglis matchup once again reminiscent of a master versus apprentice scenario – this time the apprentice came out on top: 8/10

  1. James Roberts (Centre)

A sound performance despite being binned in the final 10: 5/10

  1. Josh Addo-Carr (Wing)

One of New South Wales' best: 8.5/10

  1. James Maloney (Five-Eighth)

  1. Nathan Cleary (Halfback)

Did his job and made up a lot of territory, again: 6/10

  1. David Klemmer (Prop)

Solid. Had just nine carries of the football but managed good yardage with 85 metres: 6.5/10

  1. Damien Cook (Hooker)

Tackled his guts out (42) and again threatening from dummy-half: 7/10

  1. Matt Prior (Prop)

Was a strange selection and proved so with a quiet performance. Just three hitups: 3/10

The skipped led from the front. Unfortunately injured in the second half: 8/10

  1. Tyson Frizell (Second Row)

Not his best performance but still showed signs: 5.5/10

  1. Jack De Belin (Lock)

Shared the role with Jake Trbojevic yet again, didn’t do too much with ball in hand: 5/10

  1. Jake Trbojevic (Interchange)

The Blues' best player from the bench: 7.5/10

  1. Angus Crichton (Interchange)

Only played 11 minutes but still managed a decent output: 5/10
