Robbie Robinson enters his second season with the Chiefs as one
of the stand-out performers at the business end of the previous
season. He has played all his ITM Cup for Southland but his 2012
season was cut short with a broken leg. Robinson was part of the
2011 Ranfurly Shield winning side, slotting a memorable kick for
the win. The dynamic fullback is a former Maori All Black, was part
of the 2009 New Zealand Under 20 Junior World Championship
winning side and captained New Zealand Secondary Schools in
2007. He has also played for the Highlanders.
