With thanks to the Elmwood Trading Company, this week Lesley was joined by Aaron Tallott from the Burnham Golf Club, a pleasant rural club directly opposite the Burnham Army Camp south of Christchurch.

The club is rebuilding after a tough few years, but membership numbers are on a steady incline as Rolleston and Selwyn continue to grow.

A bittersweet week for Taha Kemara.

Kemara has been ruled out of the remainder of the rugby season after suffering an ACL injury while playing against the Highlanders last week.

On the positive side, he’s confirmed he has re-signed with the Crusaders through until 2028.

A young man still making his way in the demands of professional rugby Kemara is excited to continue his journey with a club that has produced a number of world class 10s and is hoping that he can continue that legacy upon his return from injury.

Kemara spoke with Lesley Murdoch mid-week about the injury and re-signing.
