Has Maika Sivo developed into the best try-scorer from bombs in the NRL? The question has to be asked after Sivo's match-winning performance that felled premiers Melbourne on Thursday night. In atrocious conditions, the Fijian flanker scored a try off a bomb in each half, leaping high above his Storm opponents in spectacular style. His second try - which proved the winner - from a Mitchell Moses high kick, brought back memories of Steve Gearin's unforgettable try for Canterbury against Easts in the 1980 grand final. The Moses/Dylan Brown bomb to Sivo in the left corner is fast becoming one of the most lethal attacking plays in the league - and is certain to produce more tries in the weeks to come.
