Sam Anderson-Heather (born 15 February 1988) is a former New Zealand rugby union player who played as a hooker for Otago in the ITM Cup[1] and the Highlanders in Super Rugby.[2][3]
Career
Anderson-Heather's early career was largely injury hit and despite being named in the Highlanders wider-training squad in both 2010 and 2011 he barely featured. 2012 saw an upturn in his fortunes and he got regular game time at ITM Cup level. The departure of Shota Horie to the Melbourne Rebels in 2013 saw him firmly installed as back-up to Liam Coltman for the Otago Razorbacks.[1]
Injuries to 2 of the Highlanders 3 senior hookers in the middle of the 2014 Super Rugby season saw Anderson-Heather called up as short-term injury cover. He made his Super Rugby debut on 24 May 2014 as second-half replacement for Ged Robinson in a 30–32 loss to the Crusaders.[4]
