NRL CEO congratulates Josh Papalii on playing his 300th match, becoming 21st player with a single club.
National Rugby League (NRL) CEO Andrew Abdo has congratulated Canberra Raiders prop Josh Papalii on becoming the 52nd player to reach 300 matches.
Papalii played his 300th match last Sunday, making him just the 21st player to reach 300 matches for a single club. He is also just the third Canberra Raiders player to reach 300 matches, following in the footsteps of Jason Croker and Jarrod Croker.
Papalii will be presented with the traditional 300-game match ball following the Raiders' clash with Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles on Saturday at GIO Stadium. It will be the first home match since Papalii played his 300th game.
