Veainu crossed for his fourth try in the last two games, and his fifth of the season, to open the scoring in Tigers’ 30-13 victory at Kingston Park.

The full-back collected Tait’s pass on the edge of the Falcons 22 and stepped outside Sinoti Sinoti before wrong-footing Alex Tait and breezing past Vereniki Goneva and Sonatane Takulua to touch down.

The try is one of five scores across Round 7 of the Aviva Premiership to be nominated for Try of the Round.
