9. Cameron Smith

Origins: 39

The Melbourne hooker is one of the most durable players in the NRL and has been the heart and soul of the Queensland State of Origin team for a number of seasons. He has shown no sign of slowing down in 2017 and his form is just one of the reasons the Storm are at the top of the table. He has already knocked off Darren Lockyer's record for the most-capped Maroon and will have his players charged for another big series.
