His work on block shapes allows the likes of Nathan Cleary and Jarome Luai more room to move out wide and set up their outside backs. Yeo is a workhorse, similar to Murray, but has also developed his ball-playing in recent years. Defensively he is as good as they come, rarely missing a tackle and cutting down blokes half his size with ease. His play-the-ball speed is ridiculously fast and that brings the aforementioned Cook, as well as Cody Walker, into play in the middle of the field. The 23-year-old is one of their most important players on both sides of the ball and goes full-throttle on every play. Souths fans will defend Murray to the ends of the earth, and rightfully so. It's a debate that has been running rampant in recent weeks, including on Dally M Medal night when Isaah Yeo was awarded Lock of the Year. Whoever can continue their momentum from the prelims in the grand final will play a major role in their chances of lifting the trophy. Koroisau is probably the craftier player and has more strings to his bow, but there's no stopping Cook once the Bunnies get on the front-foot and allow him to run the footy. Just a day after South Sydney qualified for the decider, Koroisau had his best game of the year and was integral in Penrith's narrow win over the reigning premiers Melbourne.Īnd it was actually Koroisau's running game that was on show more than usual, running for 87 metres which was his third-highest of the season. The 30-year-old had a try assist, two forced dropouts and ran 101 metres, shaking the tag of underperforming in big games.

Both players have had solid if unspectacular 2021 campaigns, but both also featured in State of Origin for the Blues in their series win.Ĭook's strength has always been his running game, and he had one of his best games of the year last weekend in the prelim against Manly.
