Slater’s the best No.1

MELBOURNE coach Craig Bellamy says Billy Slater is the best fullback he’s seen play the game and that he’s changed the position for the next generation of players.

Slater will join the elite 300 NRL game club against Wests Tigers at AAMI Park on Saturday night after missing the Storm’s opening-round win due to a jarred shoulder.

The milestone has been a long time coming with 30 games taking three seasons.
