Sydney-born Northern Suburbs fullback Cam Crawford joins the HSBC Waratahs this season, returning home to NSW after two years with the Brumbies.
A skillful and versatile fullback, Cam spent five years with Northern Suburbs before moving to Canberra to accept an Academy position for the 2011 season. Unfortunately, a torn medial ligament ruled him out of Super Rugby action that season but after returning to Shute Shield action and proving his fitness with Norths later that year, finishing as the Shute Shield’s third highest try scorer for the second year running, he was rewarded with a full time contract that saw him make his Brumbies’ debut in an exhibition match against Wales in 2012.
His only other appearance for the side was his Super Rugby debut, which came from the bench against the Western Force. It was this lack of game time that proved pivotal in the then 23-year-old’s decision to move home to Sydney.
