Rams Rugby, Grit & Good Yarn – A Chat with No.8 Jake Burtenshaw

This week, we sat down with a familiar face in local footy – Jake Burtenshaw, No.8 for the Upper Clutha Rams – for a down-to-earth chat about life on and off the field.

Whether he's charging down the sideline Jake brings a grounded, no-nonsense attitude to everything he does – and our convo was no different.

We talked:
✅ What it means to pull on the Rams jersey
✅ The team’s 2025 season prep and culture
✅ The balance between rugby, work, 
✅ And of course, a few good laughs from the sheds

Jake’s a top bloke, and it was great to hear how much pride he takes in being part of the Rams legacy. His passion for the club, his teammates, and the local community really shines through.

Make sure you’re following along this season – the Rams are looking sharp, and we’ll be bringing you more chats with players, coaches, and legends from around the region.
