Melbourne skipper Cameron Smith has anointed teammate Jesse Bromwich as the NRLs No.1 forward, but admits North Queenslands Jason Taumalolo isnt far behind.Bromwich and Taumalolo will go head-to-head at AAMI Park on Saturday night when minor premiers Storm host defending premiers the Cowboys in a qualifying final.Smith said the clash up front between the Kiwis internationals would go a long way towards deciding who would progress straight through to the preliminary final.I would like to think our front-rower Jesse Bromwich is leading the way there as the games best forward, Smith said.He has had another fantastic season Jesse. But Jason is a great player too and he had another great game on the weekend.Jason has been one of the best performers as a forward over the past two seasons.We all know he is a key component to the Cowboys success.(Johnathan) Thurston, (Lachlan) Coote and (Michael) Morgan all rely heavily on their forward pack, particularly Jason, to get some momentum for them to play some footy off the back off and we are well aware of that.North Queensland beat Melbourne at AAMI Park in the preliminary final last year on their way to their maiden title.Taumalolo was key in that triumph and will be crucial again this year to the premiers chances of becoming the first side to win back-to-back titles since Brisbane in 1992-93.Smith knows Taumalolos influence on Saturday can only be curtailed so much.You are not going to take Jason Taumalolo out of the game, Smith saidHe is that good a player, you just have to reduce the impact that he does have.

The trio, along with flanker Ardie Savea and prop Chris Eves, will miss the Super Rugby clash against the Reds on Saturday, live on Sky Sports 3, as a punishment for arriving back late to the team hotel before Hurricanes played the Sharks in Durban. Hurricanes suffered a 32-15 defeat to the South African side - a result which leaves them six points behind New Zealand conference leaders Crusaders. Chris Boyd, the Hurricanes coach, revealed on Thursday that the five players had agreed on a curfew for their two matches in South Africa, but had marginally missed the cut-off time having gone out for the evening.In Durban there is a lot of potential for distraction, he said. The beaches are good, the climate is good, the food is good and everything is cheap. And they had been warned about those distractions. Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd said the players made a poor error of judgement Subsequently on the Tuesday, which was the night before our day off, five players marginally missed that curfew. They were bound by the team protocols and will miss one game.Boyd refused to reveal the exact time of the curfew but said the players had been back before midnight.This was a one out of 10 offence with a 10 out of 10 punishment, he added. But a protocol is still a protocol.

Theyre grown men and they make their own decisions. The reason why they have been stood down is not alcohol related. Victor Vito will also miss the clash against the Queensland Reds Boyd said the reason they did not miss the match against Sharks was that the team had only 27 players in South Africa. Dropping the five would have meant Hurricanes could not have fielded a match-day complement of 23.The five players have apologised to the team and management, with Boyd adding: None of them are happy they have made a poor error of judgement.We have talked internally that it shouldnt be a distraction. We know there will be extra scrutiny so were determined to put a performance on back at the Cake Tin.
