Not only did the Roosters take down Canberra in an epic round 21 showdown but the premiers also walked away with the Tackle of the Week and Try of the Week double.

Joseph Manu's bone-rattling cover tackle on Jarrod Croker to snuff out a late Canberra raid got 41 per cent of the vote to win Tackle of the Week and the nod for Try of the Week went to Daniel Tupou's superb team try against the Raiders.

Manu beat impressive young Warriors five-eighth Chanel Harris-Tavita who got 31 per cent of the fans' vote for his shot on Manly fullback Tom Trbojevic.

On a week where all four nominations came from backs, Knights star Kalyn Ponga's trysaver on Eels No.1 Clint Gutherson was next best.
