MOVE over James Maloney. You’ve just been usurped.
Melbourne Storm fullback Cameron Munster is the new undisputed king of SuperCoach after smashing out a record 183 points against the Roosters.
Munster’s epic score replaces Maloney’s 181 points against the Panthers back in round 21, 2013.
King Munster made SuperCoach history in the Storm’s 46-zip win over the Roosters.
He bagged three try assists, two tackles, seven tackle busts, two effective offloads, four linebreaks, four linebreak assists, 15 hits-ups over 8m and four hit-ups under eight metres.
Remarkably, the massive haul of points included just the one try.
Apart from being an attacking stat machine, Munster broke the record off the back of a sparkling performance that included not one single error.
Hats off to those handful of people who had the courage to throw the captain’s armband Munster.
And commiserations to those who held off a week bringing the gun player into their side.

NOTE: For those who reckon Terry Campese should be on the list, he just misses the cut for his day out back in 2008. Campese bagged four tries and kicked 10 goals for the Raiders in a 74-12 pummelling of Penrith to rack up 144 SuperCoach points when scoring didn’t reward attacking stats as much as today.
