Alright, footy fans, we're back with Part 2 of our NRL Top 50 countdown! We've already seen some absolute weapons in the 50-41 bracket, but the competition gets even hotter as we dive into the 40-31 range.
These players are the backbone of their teams, the ones you can always rely on to deliver. They're consistent performers who make the big plays when it matters most. So, let's get into it!
40. Cameron Munster (Melbourne Storm)
Munster is a true game-breaker, and it's no surprise he's still flying high in this countdown. His vision and creativity are next level, and his ability to control the game is second to none. He's a constant threat, whether he's kicking for field goals or putting on a spectacular show with the ball in hand.
39. Reece Walsh (New Zealand Warriors)
Walsh is a force of nature on the wing. He's got the speed and agility to leave defenders in his dust, and he's always a threat to score. He's a real X-factor for the Warriors, and he's only going to get better with more experience.
38. Tom Trbojevic (Manly Sea Eagles)
Turbo is back! After a couple of injury-ridden seasons, Trbojevic is finally back to his best. He's a complete player who can run, pass, kick, and tackle with the best of them. His return has been a massive boost for the Sea Eagles, and they'll be hoping he can stay fit for the whole season.
37. Angus Crichton (Sydney Roosters)
Crichton is a modern-day lock forward. He's a dominant defender who can also contribute in attack. He's the heart and soul of the Roosters pack, and he's always willing to put his body on the line for the team.
36. Isaiah Papali'i (Parramatta Eels)
Papali'i is a powerful and versatile forward who can play anywhere in the pack. He's a force of nature when he's carrying the ball, and he's also a reliable defender. He's been a key part of the Eels' success in recent years, and he's likely to continue playing a big role in their future.
35. Nathan Cleary (Penrith Panthers)
Cleary is the brains of the Panthers attack. He's a brilliant playmaker who can control the game with his kicking and passing. He's a true leader and a big game player, and he'll be looking to lead the Panthers to another premiership.
34. Viliame Kikau (Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs)
Kikau is a fearsome forward who can destroy opposition defences. He's a dominant runner with a powerful offload. He's the engine room of the Bulldogs' pack, and he'll be hoping to lead them back to the top.
33. Tevita Pangai Junior (Canberra Raiders)
Pangai Junior is a high-impact forward who can change the game with a single run. He's tough as nails, and he's always willing to put his body on the line. He's been a massive signing for the Raiders, and he's going to be a huge weapon for them.
32. Brian To'o (Penrith Panthers)
To'o is the unstoppable force of the Panthers' backline. He's a powerful runner who can break tackles with ease. He's also a reliable defender, and he's always willing to do the hard yards for the team.
31. Josh Addo-Carr (Canberra Raiders)
Addo-Carr is a lightning-fast winger who can score tries from anywhere on the field. He's a genuine threat every time he touches the ball, and he's a huge asset to the Raiders.
