Philadelphia Eagles star Jordan Mailata refuses to perform bizarre Super Bowl celebration as the Australian etches his name in history Bankstown boy Jordan Mailata was overcome with emotion on Sunday night as the 27-year-old Australian helped the Philadelphia Eagles end their seven-year wait to win the Super Bowl.
Speaking on how his side tore apart the Eagles, Mailata, who proudly waved the Australian flag after the match, said to Fox Sports: 'You have got to want to - you have got to want to be more physical.
Mailata has played a huge part in their journey to the Super Bowl this season, with the former Rabbitohs and Canterbury star left speechless by his side's heroics on Sunday.
Mailata (No 68) has enjoyed a storied rise to the top of the NFL, with the Bankstown-born left tackle having originally played rugby league for the Canterbury Bulldogs.
Mailata was drafted to the Eagles back in 2018 but signed a new deal last April, worth around $A105 million and this weekend, went on to write his name in the NFL history books.
