Mat Croker shines as a key player for the Newcastle Knights heading into an NRL final
According to ABC Sport, Mat Croker has been the key to Newcastle Knights' late-season surge, as he is the only Knights player to appear in every game this year and helped them reach a sudden-death final against the Warriors after a 20-10 win over the Rabbitohs. He notched the Knights' best season moment with his 100th NRL game earlier this year, and the team leads the league in tries from their own half with 31, with more than a quarter starting from Croker as first receiver.
