It is hard to go past Cooper Cronk's unbelievable bravery to play with a broken scapula in the Sydney Roosters triumph against his former club Melbourne. The Roosters went above and beyond to keep everybody guessing about whether Cronk would play. The halfback himself remained unsure all week, so to remain on the field and bark orders the
way he did will never be forgotten. Cronk's evil glare at former friend Cameron Smith after he tried to hammer his shoulder was just as memorable. As club doctor, Ameer Ibrahim, said of Cronk's injury at the time: "It’s the most heroic thing I’ve ever seen. That fracture is what you see with motorbike accidents and car accidents. That's 11 out of 10 pain."
