Dane Sorensen

Dane Hans Ivan Peter Sorensen (born 4 October 1955)[2] is a New Zealand former rugby league footballer who played in the 1970s and 1980s.

[4] Sorensen began his career playing for the Mt Wellington club in the Auckland Rugby League competition when aged just 17.

He joined the Cronulla-Sutherland club in the New South Wales Rugby League premiership in 1977 and, due to a release clause in his contract, later that year became the first New Zealander to be selected for the Kiwis while based overseas.

Sorensen played for the Sharks from 1977 until 1989 except for 1984 when he spent the season with Eastern Suburbs.

At the time of his retirement, Sorensen held the club record for most appearances.
