Bio

Taranaki legend Andy Slater made one appearance for the Hurricanes on the reserves bench against the Cats in 2000 as an injury replacement midway throughout the season.

 Slater was an icon of Taranaki rugby throughout the 1990s, first making his debut as a 19-year old in 1989. By the time of his retirement at the end of 2001 Slater had become the third most capped Taranaki player ever behind Ian Eliason (223 games between 1964-1981) and Kieran Crowley (200, 1980-1994), and played four more games than his Hurricanes captain brother Gordon.
