1 AJ Brimson (Adelaide)
Having been outshone on his debut, the Queenslander silenced his critics in an outstanding display for the Attitude with two tries and 3 POMs, although it wasn't enough to save them from defeat against Brisbane.
2 Mikaele Ravalawa (Auckland)
Fiji winger Ravalawa was the best on the paddock in Auckland's narrow loss on the Gold Coast, collecting 3 POMs and a try in an eyecatching performance on the flank.
3 Kotoni Staggs (Merseyside)
Another try and three more goals for Staggs as Merseyside made it two from two. He's fast established himself as one of the Dockers' key men.
4 Kevin Naiqama (Hull KR)
The experienced Fiji centre bagged a brace in Hull's comfortable win over the Oilers, proving that Coach Paddock remains one of the shrewdest operators in the ASRL after his bargain arrival in the close season.
5 Josh Griffin (Adelaide)
Although the Attitude finished on the wrong end of the result, the decision to deploy Griffin on the wing looks to be paying off with the Englishman causing plenty of problem's for Brisbane's defence.
6 Michael Morgan (Brisbane)
In a week where halves generally failed to fire, Morgan kept up his encouraging start to the campaign in Brisbane's win over Adelaide and is one of the competition's form players.
7 Kieran Foran (Glasgow)
Foran rolled back the years as he guided Glasgow to victory against the Panthers. If he can keep his broken body on the field, his combination with Moses could be a big factor this season.
8 Blake Lawrie (Darwin)
Lawrie led from the front for his team in the Cowboys' loss on Merseyside, the 24-year-old racking up the metres in an impressive showing in defeat.
9 Danny Houghton (Perth)
Not the flashiest of performers, the experienced Englishman gave a typically resolute effort for Perth in their loss to Glasgow.
10 Jared Waerea-Hargreaves (Glasgow)
The veteran retains his place after another dominant outing for the Reapers, running over the Perth defence to help himself to two tries and 3 POMs in Glasgow's 20-16 victory.
11 Morgan Knowles (Merseyside)
The hardworking back row was everywhere for the Dockers in their 14-6 win over Darwin, bagging a try and making a bucketload of tackles to illustrate why the club were so keen to land their man during free agency.
12 Alex Mellor (Hull KR)
Although he lined up in the centres, the Englishman's strong running and hard hitting helped the Redkins to a welcome and deserved win over the hapless Oilers in Sydney.
13 Jai Arrow (Auckland)
Arrow made a big contribution off the bench in Auckland's one point loss to Gold Coast and might have done enough to force himself into the starting side for round three.
