Kamikamica aims to make family and nation proud

Melbourne Storm prop Tui Kamikamica aims to make his family and the nation proud when they take on the Panthers in the NRL Grand Final tomorrow.

The Fijian giant has been coming off the bench since the last time the Storm played the Panthers in Round 24 but will move into the starting side in the decider after the suspension of Nelson Asofa-Solomona.

As he goes in search of a premiership ring in his eighth season with the club, Kamikamica is ready to embody the 'next man up' mentality on the grand stage.

He says growing up in Fiji and being here at this moment is a pretty good achievement.

Kamikamica says every time he runs onto the field he wants to make his family proud and also the nation.

The 30-year-old captained his country at last year’s Pacific Championships and looks set to do the same this year.

The Storm have a proud history of Fijian stars donning the purple jersey, from dual premiership winner Suliasi Vunivalu to blockbusting winger Marika Koroibete and 2012 grand final winner Sisa Waqa.

The Storm will take on the Panthers in the Grand Final at 8.30pm tomorrow.
