Johnathon Thurston is the best Rugby League player in the world, and there's a reason for that.
Put his game play and freakish kicking skills aside, this man is tough, maybe the toughest Rugby League player in the world too?
This weekend he was set to play his 271st Cowboys game, no other player has made it to that point, and his 300th NRL game.
Unfortunately due to the shellacking his shoulder copped in Game 2 of the 2017 State of Origin series he will not play this Saturday.
But he will soldier on...
We'll never forget this freakish knee accidents in 2011 *cringe*
Or earlier this year when he hobbled off during the Tigers clash...
Some of JT's injuries may have been avoided if these massive hits didn't happen...
Townsville born Valentine Holmes has even taken a run at the King of the North...
JT always seems to cop massive hits in Origin games, but always bounces back!
Inside all that toughness is a very generous bloke too, we admire that even during his most challenging games, JT has time for the young fans...
We love your work JT and can't wait for your 271st game with the Cowboys!
