Daniel is a former Australian National Rugby League (NRL) player. He made his debut for the Sydney Roosters on the 14th March, 2010, having previously played for the Gold Coast Titans and the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. In June 2011, Daniel was forced into retirement at the age of just 25 by a serious neck injury. He underwent surgery to have his spine fused and was told he'd be risking his future if he kept on playing.

When asked to name the favourite part of his body, Daniel replied: "Any part of my body that has a tattoo on it." An elaborate full sleeve tattoo is dedicated to his family. The latin phrase across Daniel's right shoulder and chest translates as 'All the ones I love'. A tribal design incorporating the word 'Courage' adorns his left torso and thigh. In common with many of his contemporaries, Daniel has posed nude for the 'Gods of Football' calendar. Enjoy!

Sandor is a rugby league player of Māori descent. On the 27th June, 2009, he made his National Rugby League (NRL) debut with the Sydney Roosters. The match began a weekend that would prove to be both the beginning and the end of Sandor's career at the club. In the early hours of the 28th, he was involved in a nightclub brawl. The then 20-year-old was subsequently charged with two counts of assault, and to make matters worse, Sandor's contract was terminated by the Roosters. However, he was cleared of all charges by a Sydney magistrate on the 21st May 2010.

With his troubles behind him, Sandor played his first game for the Penrith Panthers on the 5th July 2010. In common with many of his contemporaries, he has posed nude for the 'Gods of Football' calendar. This, along with his underwear modelling, earned Sandor the nickname 'Princess' among his teammates. Enjoy!
