Payton Spencer needed just three minutes to score on his All Blacks Sevens debut, showing his electric pace with a try-double in New Zealand's 45-7 win over Uruguay at Sydney.
Spencer, son of former All Blacks first-five Carlos, was handed a run-on debut after being named in Clare Laidlaw's squad for the Australian leg of the world series.
He wasted no time introducing himself, touching down inside the opening minutes with a brilliant break from the halfway line.
Che Clarke, Sam Dickson, Leroy Carter and Brady Rush all crossed for five-pointers, before Spencer grabbed his double shortly before fulltime.
After receiving the ball from a standing start just inside the Uruguay half, Spencer stepped his opposite, before beating him with strength and pace to score his second.

"So much, they bring so much knowledge from fifteens and experience and just little things we can implement into our game and take us to that next step, which is awesome.
"Just looking to go have fun with the girls, do my job and hopefully everything falls into place from there.
