Source: www.sydneyroosters.com.auMove over, well everyone, because crowd favourite Sam Perrett is at the top of the pile.
Just over a month in to the start of the season and the reliable clubman is ahead of a host of big names to lead the NRL in tackle breaks for the season.
So how exactly does he do it?
"I guess it is just something I have always just had in my game," Perrett said.
"I think it just comes from my natural style where I run from dummy half or on a kick return and there is always open field in front of me."
Surely it is more then just open space, that is granted to every winger in the competition.
"Ha yeah maybe, but to be honest I'm not sure why it happens I don't think when I am charging at the line it is just instincts that takeover."
"It is really cool to hear this kind of thing though, it's pretty exciting."
The favourable stats don't just start there.
Perrett is also in the top ten in the competition for most runs and most run metres, although there is one stat that has so far been out of reach for the New Zealand international.
Despite a number of great efforts Perrett has so far seen more red lights then tries in 2012.
"I don't know what I will have to do to finally get the green light," he said.
"I might have to send them (video referees) some gifts or something or make it a lot more obvious."
A seasoned veteran at the club Perrett is no stranger to a pre-season in Bondi.
This year however he did have a few specific focuses throughout the summer months.
"I really wanted to concentrate on my speed and flexibility," he said.
"They are crucial components of my game and coming off the injury last season I wanted to ensure it was something I had worked hard on."
Clearly the work is playing dividends but what does the man himself think about his start to the year?
"I think it has been steady a bit like our whole team performances," he said.
"There is still plenty of room for improvement but that is the most exciting part as we don't know how much better we can get."
Positive thinking ahead of a big clash with the Titans on Saturday night as the club aims to make it four from six.
Something that Perrett makes sound relatively easy.
"The best way to win games is run hard and tackle hard so that is what we have to do."

Kiwis captain Benji Marshall and Warriors player Shaun Johnson were both acknowledged for their stellar performances during the 2011 year at the NZRL Awards held at the Raye Freedman Arts Centre in Epsom last night.
Benji Marshall was named Kiwi player of the year while Shaun Johnson, who attended with his father and partner, was named Kiwi Rookie of the year. Jason Taumalolo, who played in the Junior Kiwis winning team at Newcastle last month, and was also a member of the North Queensland under 20s grand final side, was named the Junior Player of the year.
Winners of the Grassroots Club of the Year, the Porirua Vikings are one of the biggest clubs in the Wellington Region, have 83 volunteers and a long time commitment to their community. They are involved in a number of projects in partnership with the Porirua City Council and also receive support from the Ministry of Development to continue their work in this area.
Henry Perenara, winner of the Match official of the year, was unable to attend the awards as he refereed the England v Wales Four Nations match on the weekend, capping off a busy year in which he progressed from referring in the National Youth Competition to international appointments.
Sam Perrett, who was unable to join the end of year tour with the Kiwis due to injury, attended the awards and spoke about his trip to Christchurch in May, when he along with Nathan Cayless, Chase Stanley, Glen Turner and Anthony Cherrington, visited schools, the hospital and attended a local Community camp. He then announced the winners of the Match Official of the Year, Women's Player of the Year and Domestic Player of the Year awards.
Jim Doyle, NZRL CEO said "Every year we have a number of quality nominations and this year was no exception. It's great to see the geographic spread of our winners which reinforces the fact that rugby league is going from strength to strength across New Zealand. It's a real positive for us to be able to acknowledge our players here and in Australia. They continue to support the game by playing for their country and are an inspiration to our younger players as they follow the pathway to international success."
During the evening Richard Blackmore, Tony Tatupu and Tony Tuimavave were also honoured as past Kiwis.
