After equalling Israel Folaus rookie tryscoring record in the NRL, Melbourne winger Suliasi Vunivalu has been likened to the dual-international by coach Craig Bellamy.The Fijian flyer bagged four tries in 30 minutes in the Storms 38-18 win over Manly on Saturday night, taking his tally to a remarkable 21 tries in 16 games.With two games to go in the regular season, plus at least two finals games with the Storm guaranteed a top-two finish, Vunivalu is all but certain to shatter Folaus feat.I respect Izzy Folau. Hes a good player, but itd be good to go past that, Vunivalu said.I wasnt thinking about (the record) going into this game. If its Izzy Folaus record, thats not my focus. My focus was to be part of the team and play hard for the boys and come out with a win.Bellamy, who coached Folau in his two years at the Storm before the Queensland and Australian representative moved to Brisbane, said there were many similarities between the pair.Folau was 17 when he made his NRL debut, while Vunivalu is 20.Hes probably a little bit quicker than Israel at this age, but Izzy was a little bit bigger than him. He was a little bit more thickset. Theyre both really good in the air, Bellamy said.What Izzy was doing was foreign to the game. Now a lot of wingers can do that sort of stuff now and obviously Sulis one of them.Theyre really good, respectful kids off the field and that was a real important part of how both of them, how good theyve been early in their careers.Vunivalus four-try haul snapped a four-game drought from the rookie of the year candidate, who has snagged two hattricks and five braces in his short career.He was the recipient of two try assists each from halfback Cooper Cronk and fullback Cameron Munster against the Sea Eagles, and shouldve had a fifth if not for surprisingly being run down by Josh Starling.I think Josh got a shock too actually, Bellamy said.A few things fell for him there tonight, a couple of kicks. But one of the tries, the try right before halftime, it wasnt a kick that was right on the spot where he wanted it or where we wanted it.He had to catch and then had to do a little bit of work. That shows his class and his ability and obviously wed like to think hes going to be a real good player for a long time. Tyson Chandler Jersey . PAUL, Minn. Roy Tarpley Jersey . Jeff Green scored 13 points and Kris Humphries 12 for the Celtics, who nearly blew an 18-point, second-half lead. Sullingers 20-20 was the first by a Celtics player since Kevin Garnetts first game in Boston in 2007. Garnett was dealt -- along with Paul Pierce -- to Brooklyn during the off-season. https://www.cheapmavericks.com/ . Kiriasis and brakeman Franziska Fritz finished two runs in one minute 55.41 seconds -- a mere 0.01 seconds ahead of Meyers and Lolo Jones, who likely bolstered her Olympic hopes by helping give USA-1 a huge push in the second heat. Stitched Mavericks Jerseys . -- Vincent Lecavalier got everything but the desired result in his return to Tampa Bay. Custom Dallas Mavericks Jerseys . LOUIS -- Lance Lynn was one of the more enthusiastic participants as the St. OTTAWA, Ontario -- Claude Giroux couldnt have asked for a much better trip to Ottawa.The Philadelphia captain scored twice, the second 40 seconds into overtime in the Flyers 3-2 victory over the Senators on Thursday night.Girouxs two-goal outing came a night after he was engaged to girlfriend Ryanne Breton of Ottawa.It was pretty special (to get engaged) and to get the win was icing on the cake, said Giroux, who grew up in the area.Michael Del Zotto also scored, and Steve Mason made 19 saves. The Flyers have won three in a row to improve to 12-10-3.It was a much needed outcome for us on the road and a pretty good effort from our group all the way through, Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said.Mike Hoffman and Ryan Dzingel scored Ottawa, and Mike Condon made 29 saves. The Senators dropped to 14-8-2.Ottawa took a 2-0 lead just 1:57 into the second when Dzingel knocked down the puck in front and put a stick on it to lift it pass Mason for his sixth of the season.We had a good first, good third, but our second definitely we could have done better, Senators coach Guy Boucher said. We stopped shooting. We created less momentum in the offensive zone and they grabbed that and got some power plays and grabbed that part oof the momentum.ddddddddddddThe Flyers rallied to tie it with two goals in minute. Giroux scored with 3:10 left, firing a shot off that caught the inside of Condons blocker and went in. Del Zotto tied it when he tipped in Mark Streits shot.Any time you blow a lead whether its one goal or two goals it always hurts, Dzingel said. We had a chance in overtime even though we gave up those two goals and we couldnt capitalize, so obviously it hurts losing that one point.The Senators opened the scoring in the first on Hoffmans power-play goal. He has five goals in six games.Game notes The Grey Cup champion Ottawa Redblacks were on hand for a ceremonial faceoff. Quarterback Henry Burris and receiver Brad Sinopoli dropped the puck from the Grey Cup. ... Ottawa was down to five defenseman for the third period after Fredrik Claesson suffered a lower-body injury. ... Philadelphia D Brandon Manning missed his third straight with an upper-body injury. LW Scott Laughton and D Nick Schultz were healthy scratches.UP NEXT:Flyers: Host Chicago on Saturday.Senators: Host Florida on Saturday night. ' ' '
