1 Joseph Manu (Adelaide)
The Kiwi centre switched to fullback for Adelaide and while the move couldn't spark a revival for his team, there were good signs - including a score - from Manu.
2 Tom Johnstone (Gold Coast)
The exciting winger bagged a try in Crusade's 20-14 win in Perth, opening his account for the campaign.
3 Toby King (Auckland)
The Englishman was best on ground in Auckland's 21-18 defeat over the struggling Attitude, helping himself to his first try of the season.
4 Kevin Naiqama (Hull KR)
Fijian centre Naiqama keeps his spot after another barnstorming effort for the Redskins in their 12-4 win against Glasgow.
5 Matthew Dufty (Darwin)
The flying fullback finds himself on the wing for the Cowboys at the moment, however he is proving equally elusive and electrifying with ball in hand.
6 Shaun Johnson (Hull KR)
A try and two goals for the Kiwi half back in Hull's victory against the Reapers of Glasgow. Johnson is a key man for Paddock's charges.
7 Gareth Widdop (Brisbane)
Widdop has been in great form for the Rampage this season and the shrewd operator kept up his impressive run with another strong outing in Brisbane's defeat of Merseyside, landing eight goals in a penalty laden contest.
8 George Lawler (Brisbane)
The unassuming Englishman was in determined mood for Brisbane in their win against the Dockers. Strong running and solid defence contributing to an eyecatching display.
9 Damien Cook (Auckland)
A quiet week for the rakes but Cook contributed to an important win for the Orcas in a reminder of his status as one of the best number nines in the competition
10 Ryan James (Gold Coast)
The experienced forward produced one of his best displays in recent seasons as part of an impressive Crusade pack in the 20-14 win over Perth in WA.
11 Nelson Asofa-Solomona
The big fella was a shining light for the Orcas in their win against Adelaide. When he's in the mood, few can handle his giant frame and no messing about runs.
12 Kurt Mann (Darwin)
Lining up in the back row, the versatile Mann was the pick of the paddock in Darwin's comfortable 20-6 victory over Sydney.
13 Joe Westerman (Gold Coast)
One of the most naturally gifted blokes to make the move from the Northern Hemisphere into the ASRL in recent years, Westerman played a key role in the Crusade's victory against Perth with a try and a series of damaging carries.
