Trip Across The Ditch

Presented by Assoc Prof Peter Cathro, Dr Stephen Harlamb and Dr Erin Mahoney (NZ)

Why wait until winter to visit the beautiful city of Christchurch? We’re not! This year’s conference in April is held in conjunction with the Super 14 game in the lead up to the RWC 2011. Put on your ’tahs jersey and help cheer on the Waratahs when they clash with the Crusaders.

The NSW Waratahs take on seven-time Super rugby champions the Crusaders at the newly developed AMI Stadium in Christchurch on Saturday, April 10, kick-off 7.35pm. The Waratahs will be looking for revenge after narrowly losing to the Crusaders 13-17 in Sydney last season.

Look out for Wallabies stars Phil Waugh, Drew Mitchell and Berrick Barnes playing for the Waratahs against All Black stars Ritchie McCaw, Brad Thorn and Dan Carter for the Crusaders. The ‘Tahs will be the first Aussie team to play at AMI Stadium since the opening of the new Deans Stand, which is named after the family of current Wallabies coach Robbie Deans.
