Andrew Johns, Johnathan Thurston and Carlos Spencer have climbed to the summit of multiple sporting achievements -- but can they translate their sublime skills to some old-school backyard kicking contest?

The trio -- along with Darryl Halligan and St Kent’s student Carlos Price -- will compete in the charity kicking contest at this weekend’s NRL Auckland Nines -- with up to $20,000 set to be donated to the Rising Foundation by sponsors Beko.

Watch the above video to find out who’s got it and who’s buying who dinner as a result -- with plenty of trash-talking and trick shots along the way.
