One of Queenstown’s finest rugby products, Michael Collins, hopes he’ll get on the pitch when his Highlanders team brings the Super Rugby circus to his hometown at the end of this month.
In a scheduling reshuffle enabled by the trans-Tasman bubble, the Highlanders play the Melbourne Rebels in an afternoon match at the Queenstown Events Centre’s John Davies Oval on May 30.
Although it’s the first professional game in the resort since the Highlanders beat the Western Force in 2010, Wakatipu diehards will argue it’ll be Collins’ second-most important game in the area after he helped the Wakatipu Prems lift the White Horse Cup off Arrowtown at Jack Reid Park in 2019 it’s been his only showing for the team.
