Flying Fijian lock Leone Nakarawa was instrumental in Toulon’s 38-5 win over Stade Français in the Top 14 competition today.

The Sergio Parisse captained side earned a bonus point over his struggling former club Stade Francais.

The flawless Louis Carbonel opened the scoring with a penalty before Argentina’s Facundo Isa crossed for the opening try, followed by Parisse from short range.

Stade suffered a blow with hooker Lucas da Silva yellow-carded five minutes before half-time.

Two quick-fire tries in the second period by Thomas Salles and Aymeric Luc sealed the Parisians’ fate.

Loic Godener was eventually driven over from an attacking lineout in the 58th minute for Stade’s sole score of a disappointing evening.

And Toulon had the final say with American hooker Mike Sosene-Feagai crossing for his club’s fifth try.

Meanwhile, winger Jiuta Wainiqolo missed the clash due to injury.
