Video - Digby Ioane's model nephew scores hattrick against Scarlets
By Online Editors
A player with a famous surname and a distinctive look scored a hattrick of tries against Scarlets on the weekend.
Treviso's Monty Ioane is the nephew of Wallaby Digby, and it's not just his distinctive look that likens him to his uncle - he clearly knows his way to the try line too.
Ioane scored a hat-trick as Benetton Treviso beat defending champions Scarlets 22-12 to equal a club-record fourth straight win in the competition.
He beat seven defenders along the way, made three clean breaks and made a total of 116 metres during his 77 minutes on the pitch.
A product of the Queensland Reds academy programme, he has played for Stade Francais, Tasman and Bay of Plenty.
The 5'11, 95kg wing has also worked as a fashion model.
He signed for the Pro14 side in November of 2017, and the 23-year-old will be eager to keep his scoring form for the club.

Realistically only three players definite Bok starters this year - the front row - which comfortably did the job. The rest of the team will not be anywhere in the shakeup for the championship or the incoming tours. Leinster’s young side did very well on this tour. It is obvious that the Leinster are on a different level of coaching and enthusiasm compared to the SA franchises. The No1 Leinster team is essentially Ireland - not one current SA franchise would be represented by more than three players in the Bok line-up. It’s both a strength and a weakness for Ireland. It’s an interesting dynamic.
