On Thursday night, Craig Bellamy's Melbourne Storm dismantled Wayne Bennett's South Sydney 50-0 behind Melbourne cult hero Josh Addo-Carr's six tries.
Addo-Carr's performance saw him create history, becoming the first player in 71 years to score six tries in a game. After the demolition of South Sydney, 'The Fox' took his 2021 season try-scoring tally up to 11, tying with Roosters veteran Brett Morris.
Individual performances similar to Josh Addo-Carr's on Thursday night is something the NRL has been spoiled by on a number of occasions in the last 20 years.

Former New Zealand Kiwis legend and two-time Dally M centre of the year Nigel Vagana tore South Sydney's fans hearts with his five try clinic in Round 4 2002. This five try spell equalled the Bulldogs the previous record of most tries scored in a game, set by Edgar Newham at the SCG in 1942.
