Kodi Nikorima has continued his sales pitch for a new NRL contract after piloting an undermanned Dolphins side to a seventh-straight NRL win by defeating Wests Tigers 36-22.
Without regular halves partner Isaiya Katoa and with State of Origin stars Selwyn Cobbo, Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, Max Plath and Tom Flegler rested, Nikorima stepped up to the plate on Saturday to keep the Dolphins in the hunt for a top-four berth.
