All Blacks loose forward Jerome Kaino has admitted a charge of drink driving.

Kaino, 25, entered a guilty plea when he appeared in the Auckland District Court on Monday.

He was breath-tested by the police at the scene of a nose to tail incident in Auckland, and was found to be over the legal limit.

Kaino was disqualified from driving for six months and fined $800 plus court costs.

The New Zealand Rugby Football Union has said he may face a misconduct hearing.
