As this seemingly never-ending off-season drags on, fans of the game are continuing to talk all things rugby league. From the draw, to away trip plans, to who is best positioned for a run in 2021.
Weโve decided over to take a look at the Top 10 players in each position and today we start with the prolific role of the centre.
For the purpose of this list, only full-time club centres will be considered.
Top TEN best fullbacks in the NRL
Top TEN best wingers in the NRL
Top TEN best centres in the NRL
Top TEN best five-eighths in the NRL
Top TEN best second-rowers in the NRL
6. Dane Gagai
This is going to sound ridiculous considering his career to date, but Gagai had a big bounce-back year in 2020. Again, that sounds crazy, but it looked as though the specialist centre would be "relegated" to a wing spot for the Bunnies.
He opened the season on the wing, and played well, but became an absolute weapon once back in the centres. He was arguably among QLD's best, again, in the recent Origin series routinely beating the supposed best player in the game.
His 11 tries in 19 games added to 138 metres per game, 15 line breaks and a very high 61 tackle breaks. What a season from the Bunnies and QLD star.
Hopefully for the Panthers , they will retain him. They certainly deserve to.
Penrith should get Leniu & Staines to have a good chat with him. To convince him as to why itโs better to stay at the Panthers.
I think Crichton will re-sign. There is a Mt Druitt connection between Crichton Leniu, Liau, and To’o. Leniu and To’o has re-signed, Liau will too.
