The lightning-fast center made a debut for the Queensland Maroons and moved him to an elite club of stars to do the same.
After Tino Fa’asuamaleaui hit the New South Wales defensive line with a strong run broke through, he managed to dump the ball on a charging Tabuai-Fidow who only had green grass and the try line in view.
With no blues player in his way, Tabuai-Fidow put the ball on the ground and partied in front of the roaring Gold Coast crowd.
Tabuai-Fidow now joins a list of maroons and blues legends who met on their Origin debuts.
Anthony Minichiello, Billy Moore, Wayne Pearce, Cameron Smith, Scott Prince, Mark Gasnier, Arthur Beetson, Mario Fenech, and Ben Elias are some notable members of this elite club.
