I think it had something to do with him kicking 3 from the sideline at training the other week. I could be wrong but they mentioned something along those lines in the post match interview he had. Could be he was talking himself up so they gave him a crack

I loved the Dale kick...think they are just testing others out so if cam isn't playing or cam comes off we have a second kicker

We have Munster and Harris plus Joe Stimson now Dale

Incredibly agile for his bulk. I'd sidestep him!

I think Chambers is also a kicker?

Suli had a huge game. Possibly a smoky for Daly M winger of the year. I think he's definitely the most dangerous winger in the comp at the moment and he's been solid in defence also. I don't think he's catching up to AJ on overall tryscorers list this season as he's 3 tries behind with only 2 games to go.

Vunivalu hasn't even been the best winger for the Storm this year.

And give me Rapana any day over both.

I think it might depend on how Johnston pulls up from that injury he picked up. If he can't play the last two games then Suli is definitely a chance to catch him.

Rapana is overrated, such a grub and he hardly gets called out for it. I'd take Cotric over Rapana

Haha nice one. Catch the Raiders game on Sunday? He made just over 100m, missed 3 tackles, 0 line breaks, 0 tries. Suli made 198m, missed 0 tackles, 2 line breaks and a try.

Ah, the one game sample size argument. Would you like me to go find a bad game from Suli to show he's actually the worst winger in the comp?

A one game sample size is still more evidence than a throwaway line stating that Rapana is better than both our wingers.

Career record is only 1 from 4 though
