Stat Attack: World Cup Round 2

A host of Panthers stars had a weekend to remember in the second round of the Rugby League World Cup in England. 

Panthers halfback Nathan Cleary scored 28 points to lead the Kangaroos to a 84-0 victory over Scotland, while fellow Test debutants Liam Martin and Isaah Yeo also notched plenty of impressive stats.

Samoa winger Brian To'o was unstoppable in the 72-4 triumph over Greece as he recorded 371 run metres, 16 tackle-breaks and the game's first try. 

In the same game, five-eighth Jarome Luai assisted five tries while centre Stephen Crichton scored 24 points. 

Departing Panthers Viliame Kikau and Api Koriosau combined for three tries in Fiji's win, while Kiwis captain James Fisher-Harris and Test debutant Scott Sorensen impressed for New Zealand.
