Narbonne returned to the winners circle with a home win over Rouen Normandie 30-16.

Naqalevu, who missed their last 2 games returned at Centre and opposed former Fijian Drua Centre Api Vota.

Naqalevu made some big carries including a linebreak in the opening minutes.

Unsurprisingly, he is definitely going to be a force in this competition going off his first 2 games.

Naqalevu powerful in Narbonne victory

Apisai Naqalevu put in a five star performance for National 1 leaders Narbonne on Saturday night against Albi.

He scored a try and set up another in a barnstorming display of power and skill.

It's his first try for the club and it came in the 30th minute when he broke through the line and beat several defenders on a 20 metre run.

Through 6 matches for his new club, the former Perpignan Centre is yet to taste defeat. Final score 27-23.
