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.

Weโ€™ve 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 five-eighths in the NRL
Top TEN best second-rowers in the NRL

4. Kotoni Staggs

If Staggs had played the entire season, he could realistically be a top-two centre in the game. His efforts this year in a deplorable Broncos outfit was nothing short of incredible. 14 games saw him score 10 tries, break the line 12 times and break 46 tackles.

He scored some highlight-reel tries and his hat-trick against the Bunnies prior to the break had Broncos and Blues fans licking their lips. Unfortunately, his season would end due to an ACL which will heavily affect his 2021 also. He finished in the Dally M team of the year and would have debuted for the Blues if not for injury.

  1. 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 itโ€™s better to stay at the Panthers.

  2. 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.
