A rising star in the making over the past two seasons, Sualauvi Faalogo showed glimpses of the magic that has quickly made him one of the most talked about prospects in the NRL.
After taking out consecutive Feeder Player of the Year honours over the 2022 and 2023 seasons, Fa’alago finally got his shot in the first grade for Storm’s Round 27 clash against the Brisbane Broncos.
Producing a memorable NRL debut, Fa’alago produced a brilliant 60m effort to score with his very first touch of the football.
This try claimed Try of the Year honours at Storm’s Player of the Year awards night.
Not content to stop there, Fa’alago iced the game with yet another individual effort, finishing his sole NRL game with two tries, eight tackle breaks and two linebreaks.
Fa’alago showed such promise he was rewarded with selection in Samoa’s Pacific Championship’s side in which he was also nominated for IRL Golden Boot.
The Victorian rugby league product started 2024 with a bang, signing a new deal, keeping him at the club for the next five years. The 20-year-old was elevated to the top 30 list for the 2024 season after an impressive NRL and international debut.
Fa’alogo made 14 NRL appearances in 2024 and claimed 8 tries.
Sua is sponsored by Rover Projects, Paul & Domenica Furina and Henley.
