Samoan international utility back Loki Crichton joined the Falcons in November 2006 from New Zealand province Waikato.

A long-time Super 12 and Super 14 star with The Chiefs, Crichton has been capped at fly half by his country after making his Test debut in the summer of 2006.

With the ability to play fullback and right across the three quarter line as well, Crichton’s versatility is a major asset.

Making his Guinness Premiership debut for the Falcons from the bench in November 2006, his first start was in the 26-18 away win over champions Sale Sharks.
