If scoring a try wasn't enough, Te Maire Martin ensured his debut will live long in the memory of Panthers fans by winning the game for his side with a late field goal.

The modest 20-year-old was in no mood to blow his own horn after the dramatic 23-22 win over the highly fancied Broncos, however.

He told the TV broadcaster he was just hoping he had done enough to earn a spot in next week's side, before giving an equally adorable interview with the Panthers' official website.

Here are some of his perspectives on his own dazzling performance.

On his introduction to the NRL:

Coming into this game I just wanted to focus on my defence, but getting a try and a drop-kick on debut is a dream come true. It was the toughest game I've ever played. At half time I felt like I'd just played two games and I've never wanted to spew so bad in my life. Then the second half came and we sort of got a bit of momentum there, we were just flowing and flowing ... yeah I'm stoked.

On his try:

I'm not to sure what happened, hey. I was having a rest in the corner, and Carty ended up doing some freakish stuff and it ended up coming back to me, and all I had to do was catch the ball and put the ball down.
