Owen Pattie's hard work paid off, achieving five 40/20s in 35 NRL games, showcasing his exceptional talent.
Most people can't get off the park quick enough during a cold Canberra winter, but Owen Pattie "puts in the hours after training" - and this wild stat shows the work is paying off for one of the NRL's most lethal weapons.
Two pinpoint 40/20s in a win over Canterbury mean Pattie has now booted five in the first 35 games of his NRL career. Just two players have nailed more in that same career span - former Newcastle halfback Scott Dureau (nine) and ex-South Sydney livewire Chris Sandow (six).
Two players have a share of third place with Pattie on the list revealed by social media's "Random Stats Guy" - former St George Illawarra halfback Brett Firman, and ex-Raiders hooker Josh Hodgson.
But the figures that separate Pattie from the rest of the pack? The 22-year-old has started in just five of those games, and he has spent more than 40 minutes on the park just five times - but now the Raiders are reaping the rewards of Ricky Stuart's call to develop Pattie in NSW Cup at the start of the season.
