Nathan Cleary produced one of the finest State of Origin performances of his career to steer the Blues to a record-breaking win, and the Telstra Tracker numbers support just how well he played

Nathan Cleary is all too happy to let Tom Trbojevic shove him out of first receiver when Origin is on the line because the fullback-turned-centre-turned-everywhere-man has the best footballing instincts he has ever seen. Trbojevics apparently unparalleled "feel for the game" propelled him to a second State of Origin hat-trick on Wednesday night as he popped up on Latrell Mitchells left edge more times in the 80-minute carve-up than he did during the Blues 10 days of preparation. To a man NSW be...

That equates to a sizzling 9.7 metres per second in full flight. Trbojevic, who was crowned man of the match in the stunning 50-6 romp over the Maroons, fell just short of equalling his maximum velocity of the premiership season for Manly (35.9km/h). Addo-Carr, meanwhile, was a fair way down on his 2021 peak (38.1km/h) but he didnt see much open space with the ball and wasnt required to switch on the afterburners in pursuit of a Queenslander. Maroons winger Xavier Coates, who owns the second-be...

Trbojevics man-of-the-match performance by the numbers Tom Trbojevics stellar effort in the 2021 State of Origin opener was a key factor in New South Wales record-breaking win, and the Telstra Tracker numbers illustrated why he was so dominant in Townsville 6 hours ago

The data behind Latrells dominant return to Origin After two years away, Latrell MItchells return to the State of Origin stage was seamless and the stats, thanks to Telstra Tracker, highlight just how good his performance was 3 hours ago

Eels captain Clint Gutherson impressed on the Telstra Tracker leaderboard.

Cowboys jet Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow joined some elite Telstra Tracker company last week by becoming just the fourth player to crack 37km/h this season. The centre still has a way to go to catch Josh Addo-Carr (38.1km/h), Jason Saab (38km/h) and Xavier Coates (37.6km/h), but Tabuai-Fidows mark of 37.3km/h elevates among the games quickest. The 19-year-old flyer was a sight to behold in Fridays 29-28 victory over the Warriors when he glided 65 metres down the left touchline to help level the scores j...

David Mead clocks fastest speed of round 11.

Dragons young gun Cody Ramsey wont have any dramas adjusting to the workload of a full-time fullback if his latest Telstra Tracker results are anything to go by. The 21-year-old speedster will get a shot in the No.1 jersey in Fridays local derby against the Sharks due to Matt Duftys shoulder injury. Despite playing 11 of his 12 NRL games on the wing, Ramsey has been touted as a long-term custodian and his effort in a 44-18 Magic Round loss to the Storm showed hes got ample stamina and speed. Ra...

Manly speedster Jason Saab has thrown down the gauntlet to Josh Addo-Carr, reigniting calls for a 100-metre rugby league sprint showdown to declare the NRLs fastest man once and for all. Perhaps inspired by famous fan "Harry" challenging teammate Tom Trbojevic to tear up and down the Manly Corso, Saab says theres only one way to crown the games ultimate speed king. With all 16 clubs arriving in Brisbane for Magic Round this weekend, its understood NRL CEO Andrew Abdo was receptive to the idea o...
