It's rare that players earn 19 appearances in a single #MLR season. For starters, your team has to make the #MLRChampionship!
Only two players in MLR history have started all 19 games in a season, JP Smith & Riekert Hattingh for @seawolves.rugby in 2022!

With two tries in the 2025 #MLRChampionship, #FreeJacks' Paula Balekana improved to 15 tries in #MLR2025, tying the #MLR record set in 2023 by...himself!
Balekana is the only player in #MLR history to score 15 tries in a single season, and he's done it TWICE!

🧵 1/2 #MLR2025 #MLRChampionship
The #FreeJacks look to have the advantage in the set piece, but have conceded far more penalties than the #HoustonSaberCats throughout #MLR2025!
The two sides look quite even otherwise, except for the Head-to-head. The 'Cats have never beaten the Free Jacks!
