The 30-year-old crossed the line in the 78th minute, to end a positive performance for the Canon Eagles who ran in six tries to the D-Rocks two.
Some cracking tries were scored on either side of the world at the elite end of club rugby over the weekend, but none could touch Valynce Te Whare's brilliant 95-metre run for sheer power and brutality in the Shizuoka Blue Revs' 38-28 comeback win against Yokohama Canon Eagles.
Springbok pair Faf de Klerk and Jesse Kriel starred as Yokohama Canon Eagles beat the Shizuoka Blue Revs in a high-scoring shoot out by 53-35.
Just how long can this continue? It’s now over a decade since Yokohama Canon Eagles last beat Saitama Panasonic Wild Knights. That was a 23-18 win in 2013. In the 15 games since, the Eagles have been shot down each time, often by large margins.
