Sitiveni Waica Sivivatu (born April 19, 1982 in Suva , Fiji ) is a New Zealand rugby union player .

Originally from Fiji, Sivivatu moved to New Zealand during his youth. He began his club career in 2001 at Counties Manukau in the second division of the National Provincial Championships and moved to Waikato three years later . With this team he was 2006 New Zealand champion.

In 2004 Sivivatu made his international debut with the Pacific Islanders , the then newly formed national team from Fiji, Samoa and Tonga, whose games are recognized by the international association IRB as official internationals. Then, however, he decided to play for New Zealand and completed his first international game for the All Blacks on June 10, 2005 (91-0 win against Fiji). At Tri Nations 2005 he was out due to injury, but soon returned to the squad and developed into a regular player.

On the 2011/12 season, Sivivatu moved to the French club ASM Clermont Auvergne .
