What a talent.
The World Rugby awards are currently taking place in Monaco with Rieko Ioane having just been named Breakthrough Player of the Year.
The Blues and All Blacks winger has been nothing short of outstanding in his debut season, quickly becoming one of the deadliest in world rugby.
He has become an integral part of the All Blacks’ starting line-up and has been scoring tries for fun since his debut, including two yesterday against Wales.
Congrats Rieko.
