The Melbourne Storm skipper surpassed Hazem El Masri’s tally of 2,418 points with his penalty goal in the 49^th minute of his side’s clash with the North Queensland Cowboys at 1300SMILES Stadium.

Already holding the record for the most games played, most wins and most goals – Smith now adds the top point-scoring tally to his long list of career achievements.

Thank you for all of the kind messages. Credit to my @Storm teammates, past and present, for helping me get to this point. Lastly a special shoutout to Hazem El Masri, a legend of our game and someone I loved watching as a young fella coming up. Good to catch-up last week mate! pic.twitter.com/HqVLYQdKJ4
