Another great weekend of NRL action has passed by. Star performances, hard working players giving it their all, a Bulldogs upset, and another glorious Dolphins win. But which players were the best of the best? We try and make the stats do the talking, and separate the Wheat/Chaff to present the NRL Round 2 Team of the Week explain.
We have taken some of the key stats and assign various scoring methods, all in the good intention of making the various types of stats even out across the position, and a true team of the week unveiled.
An explanation of what is included and points assigned is right at the bottom.

2023 NRL Round 2 Team of the Week
So we’ve used the stats for each position and picked the best starting 13 players from the most recent round, the stats and points assigned are explained at the end.
On top of the best starting 13, we include the best four interchange players of the week. Seeing who has provided maximum impact from the bench.
The Bulldogs upsets win hasn’t surprised the Gurgler’s Team of the Week, with a few representatives. Api Koroisau rewarded the Tigers for actually starting him with a Team of the Week performance too.
As ever, there’s a few players on losing sides that make the best of Round 2, including new SuperCoach favourite J’maine Hopgood.
Again we balance out the stats with our favourite players of the week from outside the stats, including a few Broncos who shone bright in their spiritual home of Suncorp Stadium on a Friday night, and The Hammer was sensational for the Dolphins, in attack scoring the crucial tries, and safe under the high ball in that dreadful weather.

Here is the team of the week after the first two rounds of the season.
