Wests Tigers star Jahream Bula<\/a> has made history, becoming the first player to score four tries for Fiji.<\/p>\n

The fullback achieved the feat inside one half against the Cook Islands in the Pacific Championships as his side went on to win 44-24.<\/p>\n

Bula was electric in the first half, scoring three by the 12th minute. Caleb Navale then crossed next to make it 24-0 for Fiji.<\/p>\n

Sharks centre KL Iro stopped the rout when he bulldozed over for the Cook Islands’ first points.<\/p>\n

There’s a chance momentum could’ve been in favour of the Cook Islands, but Esam Ioka was denied a try in the 36th minute.<\/p>\n

Broncos star Brendan Piakura was judged as offside in the chase, however Andrew Johns wasn’t convinced.<\/p>\n

“There’s no way he was offside,” he said on Nine.<\/p>\n

But it was Bula on the scoresheet again before the break to deliver a 28-6 lead at half-time.<\/p>\n

“He is just a class above,” Billy Slater said.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t a great start to the half for Fiji with Taane Milne sin binned for a high shot in the 49th minute.<\/p>\n

During his absence, Justin Makirere scored for the Cook Islands. However, on Milne’s return, Fiji were in again through Kitione Kautoga.<\/p>\n

Both sides traded tries with Reubenn Rennie, Kurt Donoghoe and Solomone Saukuru scoring.<\/p>\n

On full-time, Cook Islands lock Pride Petterson-Robati beat multiple defenders to barge over and give his side a decent ending.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wests Tigers star Jahream Bula has made history, becoming the first player to score four tries for Fiji.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":222560,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[64,63,761,762,158,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-222559","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nrl","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-national-rugby-league","11":"tag-nationalrugbyleague","12":"tag-nrl","13":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=222559"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222559\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/222560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=222559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=222559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=222559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
