Crusaders and Hurricanes

On Friday 25th January Motueka hosted a pre-season Super 14 match between the Crusaders and the Hurricanes. Dan Carter was injured so he didn't play but he was still popular with the crowd!
He signed autographs after the game and some people were lucky enough to get their photo taken with him...Miss Robinson was upset because her camera ran out of batteries inthe middle of the game!

Todd Blackadder arrived by helicopter and landed in the middle of the field.

Look at the crowd on the embankment. It was great to see so many local people showing their support by dressing up and and coming along to the Sportspark to watch.



The Hurricanes were warming up right next to the stands - it was exciting to see All Black players such as Jerry Collins and Conrad Smith in action.
Unfortunately the Hurricanes ended up losing the match 55-33.
