Sydney Roosters prop Dylan Napa has waved a red rag in front of Jason Taumalolo by describing him as the key to beating the Cowboys.
Heading into NRL grand final qualifier, Napa's assessment of the Roosters' opposition was simple to stop Taumalolo and stop the Cowboys.
However, that's been easier said than done this year.
After making 230‑plus metres in back‑to‑back finals matches, the Taumalolo leads the league for running metres with a daunting 4,707m.
Before last week's semi‑final, Parramatta publicly challenged Taumalolo to step up to the mark.
The Cowboys will take on the Roosters at 9.40 tonight.
