Wests Tigers fullback Corey Thompson has been named the K-Town Man of the Match for Round 15 following his starring role against the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Bankwest Stadium.
After announcing a contract extension with the club during the week, Thompson certainly backed it up on field with a team-high 160 metres from 16 runs as well as a crucial try just before the break to level the match at half-time.
Thompson's 51 post-contact metres were the most of any outside back on the night, while his five tackle breaks also led all Wests Tigers players.
