If last weekend's performance against Wellington is anything to go by, Mason Walker should turn plenty of heads at the Bayleys National Sevens in Rotorua today.
The Bay of Plenty sevens rep was in electric form at the Bay Engineers Provincial Sevens tournament in Mt Maunganui last weekend - albeit on a bad knee.
The fact the former Rotorua Boys' High School star was even on the paddock, in the playoff for third against Wellington, was noteworthy enough.
Minutes before the match, dressed to play but with a heavily bandaged knee, the young man they call Mase had seemed less than sure he was good to go. But go he did.
He played the second half on a bad wheel and burned the men from the capital with two 50m tries in as many minutes - the second of which featured his trademark swerve and hammer down to the outside.
