    A debut nine years in the making for Canterbury's Sam Dickson

    A debut nine years in the making for Canterbury's Sam Dickson


    The All Blacks Sevens veteran has been named on the bench as a replacement loose forward for the red and blacks in the NPC tomorrow night in Dunedin against Otago.

    Dickson was part of the Canterbury wider squad back in 2012 before he was plucked out of 15s and into sevens.

    He says he has no regrets with the path he took.
