Fiji born Kiniviliame Naholo kick start his Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific debut for the Hurricanes with a bang as he scored two tries to help his side beat Waratahs 33-17 last night.

Naholo, who was signed by the Hurricanes from the Crusaders scored in the 27th and the 54th minute of the game and caused havoc for the Waratahs defence.

He is the younger brother of former Highlanders and All Blacks winger, Waisake Naholo will now be looking to stamp his mark on the no.11 jersey for the rest of the season.

Meanwhile, Nemani Nadolo scored a try for the Waratahs.
