Busy Brailey goes the distance in golden point win

Sharks hooker Blayke Brailey churned through the work in his 88-minute stint during last Saturday's golden point victory over the Rabbitohs, registering the second-highest distance covered on the Telstra Tracker for 2022. 

Brailey travelled 10,243 metres at PointsBet Stadium, 241 more than teammate Matt Moylan who was the next best in round 20, and across this season the effort has been bettered only by Dragons player Tyrell Sloan's 10,287 metres in round 2. 

The extended duration of that game saw Sharks and Rabbitohs players dominate the total distance category for last weekend, with seven of the top 10 coming from those clubs. 

While it was Broncos playmaker Ezra Mam who clocked the highest speed of the weekend at 34 km/h, Warriors winger Dallin Watene-Zelezniak was the standout across the board when it came to longer efforts at high speed. 

The Kiwi international ran 368 metres at speeds above 25 km/h in Friday night's loss to the Storm, along with 1002 metres travelled at speeds above 20 km/h.

He was joined in the top 10 of the latter category by teammates Marcelo Montoya, Adam Pompey and Euan Aitken, while on the other side of the field Storm winger Grant Anderson had 273 metres of sprinting and 706 metres of high speed running. 

Off the bench Gold Coast livewire Jayden Campbell impressed too, registering 284 metres of sprinting on his way to two tries in his side's loss to the Raiders on Saturday. 

Campbell classy for Titans
