MEET the Fijian flyer who has sparked a cross-code bidding war after scoring a staggering 100 tries in just over two years.
In a remarkable rugby league story that could give the NRL its next Semi Radradra, Maika Sivo last week brought up his Australian try-scoring ton just 30 months after being recruited from Fiji by a holidaying couple to play park football for Gundagai.
Now a Penrith Intrust Super Premiership star fielding offers from both NRL clubs and Super Rugby sides, Don and Kathy Tuckwell coaxed Sivo to Australia in 2015 after spotting the flyer while on a Fiji holiday.
“Don had a pair of footy shorts on and he met a Fijian guy who saw them and asked him if he wanted to watch a game,’’ Kathy said. “We went and that’s when we saw Maika. He was just unbelievable. It all started from there.”
