2. Api Koroisau

Nathan Cleary was the undoubted star at the foot of the mountains, however I still maintain that without bringing Api Koroisau back, Penrith don't enjoy the season that they did.

He was INCREDIBLE across 2020. Koroisau completely changed the way the Panthers attacked, and took pressure away from his very talented halves. Defences could literally never take their eye off the speedy number seven or there would be big trouble.

Five line breaks, a mountain of tackle breaks, three tries and two forced drop outs prove his success in attack, while he defended at over 92%. What a season. He's in verified company right now at nine.

  2. Cam McInnes makes the NSW side as reserve to Cook and kept Reece Robson in reserve grade and he misses the top 10? Your eyes mustn’t work!

  3. Yeah theres no way in the world you can pick Reece Robson on suspicion. Sorry thats ridiculous. McInnes is very good. Robson is not even in his orbit right now.
