Cameron Millar

Cameron Millar is a New Zealand first five-eighth who has developed into a dependable playmaker for the Highlanders. Born on 13 July 2002, he made his provincial debut for Otago in 2022 before stepping up to Super Rugby Pacific with the Highlanders from 2023. Comfortable at both fly-half and fullback, Millar combines composed game management with accurate goal-kicking, illustrated by a 27-point individual haul against the Crusaders that underlined his value as a points-scorer. He represented New Zealand at Under-20 level in 2022, earning three caps and marking himself as one of the promising young playmakers in the country's pathway. His role with the Highlanders is to steer the back line, control territory through his tactical kicking and provide a steadying influence on the side's attacking shape. Millar is yet to add a senior international cap, with his focus on building consistency and leadership as the team's primary decision-maker. Equipped with the kicking accuracy and game awareness sought in a modern No. 10, he is regarded as an important part of the Highlanders' present and future at first five-eighth.
