Players to watch - Antonio Kaufusi (Tonga)

Kaufusi is an impressive physical specimen, combining the substantial bulk needed at prop with great pace and the power to leave defenders looking a little bit silly.

Born in Tonga and raised on rugby union in New Zealand, Kaufusi came to league by accident after turning up to a "rugby" club on arriving in Australia at the age of 15.

But he took to the league code like a duck to water, no doubt helped by bench-press figures in the gym which are are said to be the envy of his Melbourne Storm team-mates.

Other names to keep an eye on: Epalahame Lauaki; Willie Manu; Tony Williams
