It may be a controversial 19-16 Eels victory over the Manly Sea Eagles but Saturday night performance marks the evolution of Maika Sivo.

The dailytelegraph.com.au reported the flying Fijian impressed all with his hard running and try-scoring ability when he first burst on to the scene.

It was the Momi man’s deft passing which proved an unlikely source for Parramatta’s points.

The Dally M Award Top Tryscorer helped the Eels score two tries with off-loads including a clever pass for Michael Jennings.

The second bit of magic saw him stand at centre from scrum, hitting the line at speed and attracting two players.

He then delivered a ball to Dylan Brown to score.
