NRL Telstra Premiership 2009

Panthers

When the panther strikes he strikes fast, he strikes hard and then he strikes again! A finely tuned attacking machine, sleek and angular, TRYTON is a nightmare to tackle. His guard is always up and for this he makes no apology as he is a firm believer in always being prepared and ready to pounce! Methodical and a slave to routine, he is totally focussed on gaining any possible edge he can to ensure victory.

His resolve is unshakeable and his powers of concentration immense, and when he locks the opposition in his sights, it's time for the prey to start praying.

Quick to break into a satisfied grin with every Panther try or well executed passage of play, his cautious nature, however, quickly reminds him that total satisfaction comes only when the full-time siren sounds, and so his try celebration of going down on one knee and punching the turf is short and emphatic, as he is not one to dwell on the moment.

TRYTON cherishes his spare time and takes every opportunity he can to pack up the gear and hit the mountains for a weekend of camping, stalking and climbing.
