Career

Poff, who grew up Cheviot, New Zealand, was selected for the NZ Secondary Schools in 2002 and in 2004 played in the NZ Colts team winning the cup in Scotland. In 2007 Poff made the Crusaders squad, however got no game time. In 2009 he became the 139th Crusader against the Stormers. His first start was against the Lions in South Africa when he played the full eighty minutes. He was unlucky to have not received more game time in the 2009 campaign.
