Your Say

Neville Costigan is one of the most aggressive players in the NRL. His big hits in the last game of the State of Origin Series (2009) showed how ruthless he can be.

neville is a massive beast. he is rugby leagues best player and the next immortal. his try for newcastle against the titans was the best in history.
