Greg Inglis (born 15 January 1987 in Kempsey, New South Wales) is an Australian professional rugby league footballer for the Melbourne Storm of the National Rugby League. A Queensland State of Origin and Australian international representative outside back, he has played his whole NRL career to date with Melbourne.

Inglis is a versatile back, having played in several positions during his career. He originally played in either the centres or at fullback when Billy Slater was unavailable. In 2007 he began playing as a five-eighth for the club. Inglis' representative matches for Queensland and Australia have been as a winger or centre.

In November 2009, Inglis won the highly coveted Golden Boot Award as the world's best player - presented to him by Rugby League World magazine, becoming the third consecutive Storm player to win it, after Cameron Smith (2007) and Billy Slater (2008).[1]

His cousin is Albert Kelly of the Cronulla Sharks[2] and Beau Champion of the South Sydney Rabbitohs is Inglis' second cousin.[3]

Playing career

Early years

Inglis began playing rugby league at a very young age for the Bowraville Tigers in New South Wales. At only 15 years old after being seen playing at a junior carnival on the NSW North Coast, Inglis signed his first professional contract with the Melbourne Storm but actually played his first senior game at 16 for Newcastle Hunter in New South Wales. While in Grade 11 at Brisbane's Wavell State High School, Inglis played for the Australian Schoolboys team in 2004 and was already attracting media attention as an NRL star of the future.[4] He played his first under 18s game for the Brisbane Wombats in 2004.[5] Before the end of the 2004 season the Storm had added Inglis to their full-time playing roster for the following year.[6]

2005: NRL debut

Inglis played for Melbourne during 2005's pre-season in a trial match against the Brisbane Broncos, scoring a try in the Storm's win.[7] While playing for Brisbane's Norths Devils in the 2005 Queensland Cup Inglis scored 12 tries in five games[8] and had already become the subject of a custody battle between Queensland and New South Wales over which state he would play State of Origin for. He scored 194 points for the Norths Devils in the Queensland Cup.[9] Inglis made his NRL Premiership debut at eighteen years of age as a replacement to injured winger Jake Webster in Melbourne's match against the Parramatta Eels, scoring a try in a 14-26 loss.

Inglis would go on to play a month later at fullback, against the South Sydney Rabbitohs, scoring another try. He played at fullback when Billy Slater was on Origin duty, or at wing or the bench as he slowly solidified himself in the Storm side. At the 2005 Dally M Awards Inglis was nominated for the Rookie of the Year, but lost to Parramatta's Tim Smith.

The Storm went on to reach the finals that season and in a playoff match against Brisbane, Inglis got his first experience in finals football. With the game still in the balance Billy Slater was helped from the field with an ankle injury and Inglis replaced him. After being on the field for five minutes he crossed the Broncos' line untouched to score the match-winning try.[10]

Unfortunately for the Storm, they lost in the Semi-Finals to the North Queensland Cowboys 16-24, ending their season.

2006: Breakthrough season

Season 2006 saw Inglis continue to play primarily in the fullback role as his counterpart Billy Slater was suspended after he began the season at centre. He was chosen as goalkicker for the Storm after the departure of Matt Orford, but the role was given to Cameron Smith after Inglis kicked just 1 from 5 against the New Zealand Warriors. After scoring 9 tries in 9 games, he was selected in the starting line up in the Queensland State of Origin team.

His selection in the Queensland squad (along with teammate Israel Folau) caused some controversy. Inglis was born and raised in Bowraville, New South Wales, and played his first senior football in NSW (in the Arrive Alive Cup). League statistician David Middleton believed that Inglis should be playing for NSW.[11] The matter was resolved when the ARL gave Inglis the green light to play for Queensland because it ruled that his first senior football was at Wavell High. However, later investigations revealed that Inglis played his first senior game for Newcastle's Hunter Sports High School, at the age of 16, and is therefore technically not eligible to play for Queensland. [12] However, Inglis went on to begin his State of Origin career with the Maroons. A few early errors were soon forgotten when Inglis scored two tries, and saved one. Unfortunately for Inglis, this was not enough for Queensland to win the match.

In the game after his brilliant Origin debut, Inglis suffered a back injury against the Sydney Roosters. This injury kept him out for 2 months, effectively making him miss the rest of the Origin series. It was around this time that Inglis signed for the Storm for a further 4 seasons, keeping him at the club until 2010. The deal was worth about $2 million, making him the richest teenager in Rugby League. On return, Inglis returned to the centre position and was an important factor in the Storm winning the 2006 Minor Premiership. The Storm cruised through the finals, beating the Parramatta Eels 12-6, and the St. George Illawarra Dragons 24-10, and eventually met the Brisbane Broncos in the 2006 NRL Grand Final, which was fortunately won by the Broncos, 15-8. Inglis finished the season with 18 tries and 2 goals, an effort which earned him selection in the Australian team for the 2006 Tri-Nations series.

Inglis scored 4 tries in his opening 3 tests against New Zealand and England and featured in the Final win over New Zealand, 16-12.

2007: Move to five-eighth and Premiership success

Inglis leaving the field following the pre-match warm-up

In 2007, Inglis was switched primarily to five-eighth; his form at five-eighth was often criticized. In the opening month of the 2007 NRL Season, Inglis failed to score a try. He sustained a knee injury against the Newcastle Knights which kept him out of the 2007 ANZAC Test. Despite not scoring at five-eighth, Inglis was selected for the Queensland State of Origin team for the 2007 State of Origin series, playing on the wing. In Game I, he scored 2 tries in Queensland's 25-18 come-from-behind victory.

Inglis finally scored his first try of 2007 in Round 12, against the South Sydney Rabbitohs. He was again selected to play on the wing for his state, and scored in Queensland's 10-6 win, which gave Queensland their second consecutive Origin series victory. Despite scoring 3 tries in 2 games on the wing for QLD, Storm coach Craig Bellamy kept pursuing Inglis as a five-eighth. Inglis scored his first double for the NRL Season against the North Queensland Cowboys. In Game III of the Origin series, Inglis injured a ligament in his knee after just 22 minutes, and as a result missed 2 weeks of action. QLD ultimately lost the game, 18-4, but had already wrapped up the series.

Following his return, Inglis and the Storm focused on the finals. The Storm suffered their third loss of 2007 in Round 20 against a Brad Fittler coached Sydney Roosters side. Following this, the Storm remained undefeated for the rest of the season, winning their second consecutive Minor Premiership.

In the finals, the Storm got redemption from the heartbreaking 2006 loss after beating the Brisbane Broncos 40-0 in the Qualifying Final, eliminating them from the competition for 2007. They defeated the Parramatta Eels 26-10 in what turned out to be Timana Tahu's last game before switching to Rugby Union. In the 2007 NRL Grand Final, the Storm faced off against the Manly Sea Eagles, who finished second. After a 10-4 lead at halftime and an untimely injury to Brett Stewart, the Storm blew Manly off the park, winning 34-8. Inglis scored two tries and as a result was awarded the Clive Churchill Medal.

Inglis also played in the one-off test at the end of the year. Inglis scored a hat-trick in Australia's record breaking 58-0 thrashing of New Zealand.

Later that year, Inglis was selected as a Centre in the Storm's "team of the decade" to celebrate their ten year anniversary.

2008: Third Grand Final and Representative Success

Inglis had shoulder surgery in the 2007-2008 off-season, and consequently missed the opening 2 rounds of the 2008 NRL Season. He returned in the Round 3 clash with the Sydney Roosters, which the Storm lost 10-6, giving them their first consecutive losses since Round 3 and 4 of the 2006 NRL Season (they lost to the Cronulla Sharks the previous week). Over the next month, Inglis featured the Storm's wins over Brisbane Broncos, Grand Final opponents Manly Sea Eagles, Canberra Raiders and North Queensland Cowboys.

Inglis was selected in the Australian team for the historical Centenary Test against New Zealand. Inglis provided a historical moment, by amazingly hitting the ball into the field of play to provide Mark Gasnier with a try. Australia won 28-12. Inglis was selected to play for Queensland for the 2008 State of Origin series in the centres. He was in Queensland's Game I loss to New South Wales, 18-10. In Game II, he had a brilliant performance, setting up two tries for Darius Boyd as QLD won 30-0.

Around this time, Sonny Bill Williams walked out of the Bulldogs and joined French Rugby Union side RC Toulonnais, despite being contracted with the Dogs until 2012. This move was believed to be instigated by Khoder Nassar, who is also the manager of former 3-time World Champion boxer Anthony Mundine, who walked out of the St. George Illawarra Dragons in 2000. Inglis, who is family friends with both Mundine and Nassar, was rumoured to be on the verge of walking out of the Storm and joining Super 14 side the Western Force, despite being contracted until 2010. However, Inglis stayed loyal to the Storm and extended his contract until 2012.

In a match against the North Queensland Cowboys, Inglis scored his first hat-trick since Round 5, 2006, as the Storm won 48-20. In Game III of the Origin series, QLD won 16-10, getting their third consecutive series win. Despite having a solid series, Inglis failed to score during the Origin campaign. In the final 7 games of season, Inglis scored 11 tries as the Storm won their third consecutive Minor Premiership. At the 2008 Dally M Awards, Inglis was named Five-Eighth of the Year and Representative Player of the Year, as well as winning the Headline Moment of the Year for his brilliant assist to Mark Gasnier in the 2008 Centenary Test.

In the finals, the Storm lost 15-18 to the 8th place New Zealand Warriors, becoming the first 1st placed team to lose an 8th place team. In the Semi-Finals, the Storm faced the Brisbane Broncos. In a brilliant match, Inglis scored with 56 seconds remaining to give the Storm a 16-14 victory. The Storm easily beat the Cronulla Sharks, 28-0, to qualify to another Grand Final. However, they lost in a record breaking 40-0 clash with the Manly Sea Eagles, failing to retain their Premiership.

In August 2008, Inglis was named in the preliminary 46-man Kangaroos squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.[13][14]

Inglis was confirmed in the final 24-man Australia squad to compete in the World Cup at the end of the 2008 season.[15] He scored in Australia's 30-6 win over New Zealand, and a hat-trick in their 52-4 win over England. He also scored in the Semi-Final win over Fiji, before Australia surprisingly lost the Final, 34-20, against New Zealand. Inglis scored 6 tries in 4 games for the tournament, and scored in every match he played for the tournament.

2009: Dual Premiership success (later stripped) and Golden Boot Award

At the start of the 2009 season Inglis attracted a lot of attention due to how much weight he'd gained since the previous season, having bulked from 99 kg up to 110 kg, making him one of the biggest players in the game. He scored the first try of the season for 2009 against St George Illawarra as well as being one of the best on ground. He scored the match winning field goal to win the game for the Storm, 17-16. In doing so, he had not only ruined Wayne Bennett's last game in charge of the Brisbane Broncos but also his first game coaching the St George Illawarra Dragons, by scoring the match winning point.[16]

The Storm had a shaky start to the season, going by a win-loss pattern until Round 7, which they drew with the New Zealand Warriors. They extracted Grand Final revenge on Premiers Manly, with Inglis scoring. During this time, Storm coach Craig Bellamy experimented by putting Cameron Smith at five-eighth, Inglis back in the centres and Ryan Hinchcliffe at hooker. However, after Brett Finch was released by the Parramatta Eels, the Storm signed him and made him their first choice five-eighth, putting Inglis back at his preferred centres position.

He was selected for Australia in the one-off test match against New Zealand on 8 May 2009.[17] This selected was unique, as Inglis was part of an all-Queensland backline, including Billy Slater, Darius Boyd, Justin Hodges, Israel Folau, Darren Lockyer and Johnathan Thurston. This feat had not been achieved since 1924. Australia won 38-10, with the superstar backline scoring all the points, proving Queensland's recent dominance.

In April 2009, he was named in the preliminary 25-man squad to represent Queensland in the opening State of Origin match for 2009,[18] and was subsequently picked at centre for the opening State of Origin match.[19] In Game I, Inglis scored 2 tries, as Queensland won 28-18. Meanwhile, the Storm maintained their position in the Top 4 of the NRL comeptition.

In Game II, Inglis scored again as Queensland recorded a 24-14 win over New South Wales, becoming the first team to win 4 consecutive Origin series. In Game II, Inglis was taken off the field in the first half after receiving a punch to the face from Trent Barrett, but still played against the Canberra Raiders that weekend in which he scored.

In Game III, New South Wales won 28-16, in a game that featured a memorable brawl in the 79th minute. Inglis received the Wally Lewis Medal for player of the series that year in recognition of his efforts during the 2009 State of Origin.[20]

After Karmichael Hunt shockingly signed with the new AFL club the Gold Coast, Inglis revealed he wouldn't mind "having a crack" at AFL. This created concern that Inglis may make a switch, but Inglis made it clear on the Footy Show that he will fulfill his contract with the Melbourne Storm. After being named "Good Guy of the Month" in July, Inglis was arrested at his home in August for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend. The Storm suspended Inglis indefinitely until he was cleared.

After his court hearing was postponed to October, Inglis made his comeback against the Sydney Roosters, scoring a double in the Storm's final game at Olympic Park. Inglis also scored in the Storm's 30-0 win over the New Zealand Warriors as they finished 4th for the season. At the 2009 Dally M Awards Inglis was named centre of the year and representative player of the year.

In the finals, the Storm comfortably defeated Premiers Manly 40-12, before defeating the Brisbane Broncos 40-10, in which Inglis scored a hat-trick. The Storm qualified for their fourth consecutive Grand Final, against the Parramatta Eels. Ironically, the Eels were the last team to make it to four consecutive Grand Finals in 1981, 1982, 1983 and 1984.

In the 2009 NRL Grand Final against the Parramatta Eels, Inglis scored a try from a Cooper Cronk bomb and kicking a final field goal in the Storm's 23-16 win[21]. From this victory, Inglis become a dual-premiership player (which was eventually stripped) as the Storm capped off their dominance by winning their second premiership in three years.

Post-season he travelled with the Kangaroos to Europe to play in the 2009 Four Nations tournament. He played in the 20 all draw with New Zealand, and scored in a 26-16 win over England. He also scored in the 46-16 Final win over England and was named player of the series in the Four nations final.[22]

Inglis also claimed the Golden Boot Award for the best rugby league player in the world.

In December 2009 Inglis won his state's major sporting award by being named "Sport Star of the Year" at the Queensland Sports Awards, becoming the first footballer of any code to win it.[23]

2010: Salary Cap Drama

Inglis played in the Storm's 2010 World Club Challenge victory over Leeds Rhinos, 18-10. Although selected for the Indigenous All Stars side to face the NRL All Stars in the inaugural All Stars match on 13 February, Inglis was ruled out due to a hip injury.[24] He recovered in time to play for the Storm in their victory over the Super League champions Leeds Rhinos in the 2010 World Club Challenge. On April 19, 2010, against rivals the Manly Sea Eagles, Inglis injured his ankle but was later ruled to have not suffered a serious injury, and can continue his playing duties. The Storm subsequently lost 16-18, their first back to back losses of the season.

It was revealed that the Storm had been breaching the salary cap since 2005, and were subsequently stripped of their NRL Premiership victories in 2007 and 2009. They were also stripped of their 2006, 2007 and 2008 Minor Premiership trophies. Finally, the were unable to obtain any competition points from the 2010 NRL Season, meaning they will obtain the wooden spoon. Inglis however will still continue to be recognised as the Clive Churchill Medallist from the 2007 Grand Final.

In Round 10, Inglis scored a personal best 16 points, with 3 tries and 2 goals against the Canberra Raiders. In doing so, he brought his career try tally to 72 tries, overtaking Marcus Bai to become the 3rd highest tryscorer for the Melbourne Storm, behind retired legend Matt Geyer and current teammate Billy Slater. In Game I of the 2010 State of Origin series, Inglis scored a try in Queensland's 28-24 win as they look to achieve a 5th straight series win.

In the lead up to Origin II, Inglis was the subject of a racial comment made by NSW Assistant Coach Andrew Johns, which led to NSW winger Timana Tahu walk out of camp. This triggered Inglis to have a big Game II, scoring the opening try and engaging in a brawl with debutant Beau Scott. This 34-6 victory to Queensland gave them their record fifth straight series win. Inglis continued his strong week, scoring 10 points (1 try, 3 goals) in the Storm's 58-12 thrashing of the North Queensland Cowboys. QLD achieved their first series whitewash since 1995, and the first of Origin since 2000, to cap off their fifth consecutive series win, winning a thrilling 23-18 encounter.

In the wake of the salary cap problems at the Storm, Inglis' future at the club after 2010 has become uncertain. Many clubs from four football codes (rugby league, rugby union, American football and Australian rules) have pursued him. On August 10 2010, Inglis signed a two year deal with the Brisbane Broncos.[25] The Broncos have recently released a key player in Israel Folau, which in turn has freed up the funds necessary to secure Inglis' services. Inglis' girlfriend lives and works in Brisbane, a factor which is said to have helped Inglis make his decision to sign with the Broncos.[26]

Controversy

In early 2008, Inglis was involved in two separate night club incidents. The first occurred during the Storm's preparations for the 2008 World Club Challenge. Inglis was injured and ruled out of the game. He acted as a peacemaker during the incident. The second, he reacted verbally to a man who insulted his girlfriend.

On 10 August 2009, Inglis was charged with recklessly causing injury and the unlawful assault of his former girlfriend the previous day, and was indefinitely suspended from playing with the Melbourne Storm.[27][28] Inglis was cleared to return to play with the Melbourne Storm by the club's board and the NRL on August 27[29],

Inglis is expected to plead not guilty to the charges, with the case adjourned for a contest hearing on 12 April 2010.[30]

The affair ended in April 2010 when Inglis avoided an assault conviction, accepting a diversion order.[31]

He was also one of three Melbourne Storm players (the others being Cameron Smith and Billy Slater) who were said to be involved [citation needed] in the club's salary cap rorting which saw them stripped of their two premierships and three minor premierships. Despite this, Inglis will still be recognised as the Clive Churchill Medallist in 2007 (the first of two titles the Storm have been stripped of), as will Billy Slater for 2009.

On Friday, June 11, 2010, Timana Tahu walked out of the New South Wales Origin camp, cited as "personal reasons". On June 12, however, it was revealed that Tahu walked because of racial comments made by NSW Assistant Coach Andrew Johns. It was later revealed the comments were directed at Inglis, as Johns was talking about him with NSW debutant Beau Scott, who will face off with Inglis in Game II. On June 13, Tahu revealed that Inglis was not the only target of the racial comments. On June 24, Inglis said that Johns should be banned from any further involvement in the game of rugby league. Inglis is reportedly not ready to accept an apology from Johns.
