He was selected in the Highlanders squad for the 2007 Super 14 season and made his Super Rugby debut against the Lions on 10 February 2007. He was also selected for the New Zealand Māori squad (representing Te Whānau-ā-Apanui iwi) for the 2007 Churchill Cup[1] and played two games, starting against Canada[2] and coming on as a reserve in the final against England Saxons.[3]
