Writing on Rugby Heaven, Marc Hinton details Sonny Bill Williams' first outing for New Zealand club side Belfast.
"They showed him the love, and Sonny Bill Williams lapped it up as he made his long-awaited debut on the rugby fields of New Zealand this afternoon.
"Close to 4000 people packed leafy Sheldon Park in suburban Christchurch to watch New Zealand rugby's big-name signing make his first appearance on the New Zealand scene.
"And they were not disappointed as the one-time star of the NRL put in a classy sort of 49 minutes, capped by a go-ahead second-half try, and helped inspire his Belfast club to a 22-7 victory over Lincoln University in the Christchurch club competition."
