Warriors wing David Fusitu'a is building a reputation as one of the best finishers in the NRL but his improved physical presence is evidence of his growing footballing maturity.
Fusitu'a had the scoreboard attendant working overtime as he scorched in for four tries on the right flank in Saturday's 50-14 blitzkrieg victory over Newcastle at Hunter Stadium.
Since debuting in 2014, the athletic 21-year-old has shown a knack for diving in to score with spectacular one-handed put-downs, and his quartet against Newcastle followed a try-scoring double in last week's win over Brisbane.
He now has seven tries from as many outings this season, but his game has grown in recent weeks, with his speed and evasive skills also proving useful when carting the ball up on early tackles.
The Marist Saints junior ploughed through 192 metres from 15 carries against the Newcastle Knights, including some courageous runs into waiting opposition forwards.
