Adam Reynolds

NRL'S Adam Reynolds is one of the best players in the Telstra Premiership this year.  Last year he had won the Rookie of the Year award, because of kicking a record breaking 87 goal kicks.  Being a debutant for the Rabbitohs, plus debuting for City (City is it's a different competition called Country vs City).  Last year scoring and unforgettable try against the Roosters, making the the score 20-20.  His kick at goal won the game in the last minute.

 
This year he has already scored 138 points for himself, and his team at the top of the ladder.  When he was a little boy he was inspired by Andrew Johns and Darren Lockyer.  But his all time favourite from the Rabbitohs was Nathan Merrit.


In 2011 his season had come to a end, after having a left leg injury.  This was bad for the Rabbitohs, because they lost Chris Sandow (their kicker) in 2012 to the Paramatta Eels. Lucky for the NRL, Adam Reynolds came back and was ready to play, and kick for the Rabbitohs. The Injury to his left leg was better, and Adam's first year in the NRL will never be forgotten.
