WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) All Blacks winger Julian Savea scored three tries, including two in two minutes late in the first half, as the Hurricanes took a bonus point Saturday from a 40-22 win over Argentina's Jaguares in Super Rugby.
Savea, who has scored 38 tries in 41 tests for New Zealand, hadn't scored a Super Rugby try this season before Saturday's match and was dropped by the Hurricanes two matches ago because of a lack of fitness and form.
But he made a barnstorming return on Saturday, scoring in the 37th and 39th minutes from breaks by scrumhalf T.J. Perenara as the Hurricanes took a 21-12 lead to halftime and again in the 63rd minute as the Hurricanes outscored the Jaguares six tries to three.
