LeagueUnlimited Team of the Week - Round 4

The LeagueUnlimited Team of the Week is back again in 2015. Chosen by our Live Updaters, this team puts together the best performances of the Round, and builds a team worthy of taking on any in the NRL.


Fullback: Josh Dugan (Dragons)
A strong return to form for Josh Dugan, who looked dangerous all night with ball in hand, busting tackles all over the field. Cleaned up alot of Manly kicks at the back also.

Wing: Reece Robinson (Eels)
Reece Robinson was great in defence for the Eels, and helped prevent the Rabbitohs getting the upper hand. Also scored two valuable tries.

Centre: James Roberts (Titans)
Roberts scored two tries off the back of some powerful running and effective footwork. Was a constant threat to the defence, and ran for almost 180 metres.

Centre: Justin Hodges (Broncos)
Justin Hodges played a major role in setting up the win. As always, he led by example in attack and defense, and picked up a try assist

Wing: Curtis Rona (Bulldogs)
Curtis Rona was immense in attack. He scored two tries of his own, and also had his hand in a third, which leveled the game up and put the Bulldogs in a position to win.

Five-Eight: Jarrod Mullen (Knights)
Staking an early claim for State of Origin honours, Mullen had his hand in everything in both attach and defence. Despite a neck injury last week, Mullen still managed to bump off defenders like a frontrower in an exceptional performance.

Halfback: Chris Sandow (Eels)
Sandow was crucial to the Eels' win. The little halfback was everywhere in attack, scoring a try and kicking the match winning field goal. Finished with 13 points for the match, and was dominant all game. Finally looks to be stringing together some consistency.

Lock: Trent Merrin (Dragons)
Looked dangerous all night with good footwork before the line, running for nearly 200m. Merrin was important in helping his team get off to a good start.

Second Row: Chris Houston (Knights)
After a late call up to the starting side, Houston amassed over 50 tackles and a try in a dominant performance. Knights fans will be hoping these performances keep up.

Second Row: Beau Scott (Knights)
Yet another solid game from the gritty New South Welshman. Scott was again heavily involved in defence, and was instrumental in putting the Panthers' halves of their games.

Prop: Luke Douglas (Titans)
Had a solid game in both attack and defense.

Hooker: Nathan Peats (Eels)
A huge defensive effort from Nathan Peats, racking up almost 50 tackles. Also helped gel the middle of the field together for the Eels, and played some very smart footy out of dummy half.

Prop: Paul Gallen (Sharks)
Paul Gallen was best on the park for the Sharks, running for well over 200 metres, and making 40 tackles.

Interchange: Luke Brooks, Mitch Pearce, Jason Taumalolo, Dylan Napa
