Melbourne Storm

Inglis burst onto the NRL scene in Melbourne's Round 10, 2005 match against the South Sydney Rabbitohs, scoring a try on debut, further cementing his reputation by scoring two tries in Round 17 against the Canterbury Bulldogs.

Canterbury Leagues Club, Belmore The Bulldogs (formerly Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs) are a team in the National Rugby League (NRL), the premier rugby league football competition in Australia. ...


In 2007, Inglis was switched primarily to five-eighth; his form at five-eighth was not as prominent as it had been in the three-quarters or at full-back, scoring fewer tries, but he developed through the season into a quality five-eighth. A rugby league team consists of thirteen players plus four substitutes. ...


Inglis was instrumental in Melbourne's 2007 Grand Final victory over Manly. Still at five-eighth, but at times playing a full-back's role in attack, he scored two tries, set up a third, and was awarded the prestigous Clive Churchill Medal for Man of the Match. The Clive Churchill Medal has been presented to the man-of-the-match of the Australian first grade rugby league Grand Final ever since 1986. ...


In 2007, Greg Inglis was selected as a Centre in the Storm's "team of the decade" to celebrate their ten year anniversary.


Queensland and Australia

Season 2006 saw Inglis move primarily to the Fullbacks role as his counterpart Billy Slater was suspended, where his form saw him in the starting line up in the Queensland State of Origin team. A few early errors were soon forgotten when Inglis scored two tries, and saving one. Unfortunately for Inglis, this was not enough for Queensland to win the match. A typical rugby league team consists of thirteen players on the field plus four substitutes on the bench. ... The Queensland Rugby League team represents Queensland in the sport of rugby league. ...


His selection in the Queensland squad (along with Israel Folau) caused some controversy. Inglis was born and raised in Kempsey, New South Wales, and played his first senior football in NSW (in the Arive Alive Cup). League statistician David Middleton confirmed that Inglis should be playing for NSW.[1] The matter was resolved when the ARL gave Inglis the green light to play for Queensland because it ruled his first senior football was at Wavell High. Inglis had always wanted to play for Queensland.
