Wow, what an emotional time it’s been for NZ Rugby! The excitement of the RWC – Edge of your seat games and excellent performances by our players. And as us proud Cantabrians know, a fair few of them also don the Crusaders jersey and do a fine job of representing rugby for us red and blacks!

So it was a bit of a sad time too for us to hear that two of those stirling Crusaders / All Blacks, Ritchie McCaw and Dan Carter, are leaving NZ rugby. We’ve had the pleasure of working with the Crusaders supporting charity events with Child Cancer and Ronald McDonald House in Chch and they are such good guys. Always happy to join kids and families in the photo booth and embracing the fun of it by wearing whichever props are handed to them by the star struck kids (it’s probably fair to say most of the parents are pretty star struck too!).

We’re just thankful that Kieran and the rest of the gang are still with us!
