Rabbitoh Damien Cook cut down a charging Bronco and Titan Phillip Sami hunted down a runaway 'Foxx' - two magnificent tackles both worthy of top honours but it was Cook's effort which emerged as tackle of the week for round 23.

When Corey Oates steamed onto the ball 10 metres out in the dying stages of Friday night's epic at Suncorp Stadium, it seemed certain he would score.

But Cook had other ideas and chopped him down with a classic legs tackle.

Sami, meanwhile, did what many thought to be impossible by giving Storm flyer Josh Addo-Carr a start and reeling him in at AAMI Park.

Campbell Graham's effort to deny Brisbane five-eighth Darius Boyd a try and Maika Sivo's bell-ringerĀ on Dallin Watene-Zelezniak were the other two nominations.
