Super Rugby Team of the Week- Round Five
Wing
11. Nick Cummins was busting for a bit of meat this game, and it showed in his performance. Here he's "gone up and over and bloody head over biscuit". (AAP)
Loosehead prop
1. Laurie Weeks is seen here being helped from the field after spending 40 minutes being absolutely monstrous. Which is what all the best props do. (Getty)
Hooker
2. We know that this is the back of Stephen Moore's head, but it is probably his better side. He was also a real leader on the better side in Canberra on Saturday. (Getty)
Tighthead prop
3. When Ben Alexander opens his eyes, he'll be in his bed instead of sprinting to the tryline, which is what all props dream of. (AAP)
Lock
4. There are times Kane Douglas is the scariest player on the paddock, and not just because he looks like a villain in a Tintin comic. (Getty)
Lock
5. He gives away penalties like Oprah gives away cars, but we can't help but like Rob Simmons. Particularly his work in the rucks against the Sharks. (Getty)
Blindside flanker
6. You want to know how much of a man Scott Fardy is? He shaved only a few hours before this photo was taken. (Getty)
Openside flanker
7. There are times that Michael Hooper carries his team. There are other times, including the one pictured, that he carries opposition players twice his size. (AAP)
Number eight
8. When he's in form, Ben McCalman really lifts the players around him. Which is why he got that yellow card this week. (Getty)
