Bulldogs flyer Jake Averillo produced one of the most spectacular four-pointers of 2020 against the Eels to waltz away with the Drinkwise Try of the Week award for round 12.

The 19-year-old somehow managed to switch the ball from his right hand to his left while in the air and then launched himself for the corner to score a try for the ages.

Indigenous Round also featured spectacular tries by Rabbitoh Latrell Mitchell and Shark Connor Tracey off kicks by teammates and a sizzling solo effort by Ryan Papenhuyzen but it was Avarillo getting the nod with 50 percent of the vote.
