Who stood out and who caught the eye across the NRL Round 23? Tony "Moley" Adams picks out his top five performers from the weekend action.
1. Clint Gutherson (Dragons)
The wily veteran was at his best, spurring the Dragons to their upset win in the local derby against the Sharks. Scored a try, set one up and made two line breaks.
2. Xavier Coates (Storm)
Is he the best bomb catcher of all time? Scored two tries leaping for the high ball as Melbourne put the Broncos to the sword on Thursday night.
3. Latrell Mitchell (Rabbitohs)
Sparked the Rabbitohs to victory over the Titans with his return from injury, setting up two tries and saving another. His effort plays proved the difference in the Spoon Bowl.
4. Ethan Strange (Raiders)
In the week when new Kangaroos coach Kevvie Walters declared him a Test ‘bolter’, produced a stunning hat-trick against Manly on Friday night.
5. Spencer Leniu (Roosters)
Like him or loathe him, there’s no denying he put the Dolphins right off their game with his aggression at Suncorp, spending time in the bin and also scoring a strong solo try.
