The nickname of Storm’s newest fan favourite caused a stir over the weekend.
Josh Addo-Carr has been a revelation on the left wing for Storm so far this season with his pace leaving opposition defences in his wake.
Just five games into his career in purple the 21-year old is already a cult hero in Melbourne and his nickname of The Fox is just as popular with members, fans and commentators alike!
"Everyone calls me Fox," Addo-Carr told NRL.com during the week.
"It comes from my great grandfather; his last name was Fox. Ever since I was a little kid playing football, my mum started calling me Fox."
