Watch: Julian Savea scores Wellington's opening try with first touch of the game
By Peteso Cannon
He mightn't be playing for the All Blacks at the weekend but that doesn't mean Savea has taken his foot off the pedal.

Savea would go on to put in a strong performance as Wellington ran out forty points to twenty seven winners, letting Hawke's bay back into the game late on.
