LeagueUnlimited Team of the Week - Round 5

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: Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (Roosters)
Tuivasa-Sheck was great in a losing side. Running for over 300 metres, the Kiwi international produced a sensational try to give the Roosters a chance.

Wing: Pat Richards (Tigers)
Richards changed the game in favour of the Tigers. He set up an early contender for try of the season and had a hand in another try - not to mention the try he scored himself. It's often difficult for a winger to get 3 points, but he certainly earned it!

Centre: James Roberts (Titans)
Roberts was easily the Titans best player in their clash with the Broncos. He was heavily involved in all aspects of the game, and made some damaging runs in attack. His lines were great, and the Broncos had a hard time defending against him.

Centre: Jarrod Croker (Raiders)
Croker scored a try, and was in fine form with his conversion kicks as well. It was a solid captain's performance from this consistent performer.

Wing: Marika Koroibete (Storm)
Barnstorming, killer speed - just an unbelievable performance from the powerful winger.

Five-Eight: Jack Bird (Sharks)
A Man of the Match performance from the Sharks rookie. With two tries and one assist, the former Dragon looks to be a star of the future.

Halfback: Ben Hunt (Broncos)
Hunt had his hand in everything tonight. He came up with some great 5th tackle options and really steered the team around the park well.

Lock: Simon Mannering (Warriors)
Simon Mannering tackled his heart out and was always around the ball in a brave losing side.

Second Row: Tyson Frizell (Dragons)
Tyson Frizell had an absolute beauty of a game. He made solid metres from every hit up, and was also damaging in defence, punishing some lazy Knights attack.

Second Row: Chris Heighington (Sharks)
A quiet achiever for the Sharks, Heighington set the platform early, with several offloads and 130 metres.

Prop: James Graham (Bulldogs)
Despite tarnishing his image in the final minutes of the game, this was a colossal performance from the Bulldogs skipper. He led the way for his side with 47 tackles and just under 200 running metres.

Hooker: Cameron Smith (Storm)
Smith led the way for his side as always. He topped the tackle count for his side with 48 tackles, and also helped his team on the scoreboard with 5/5 off the boot.

Prop: David Klemmer (Bulldogs)
While he was sent to the sin-bin for abusing referee Gerard Sutton, the Bulldogs forward produced one of his finest performances in first grade. Running for 200 metres, the passionate performance displayed by the young forward will not have gone unnoticed.
