Not to be confused with Mark Darren "Sharky" Robinson, the North Harbour and 1997-2001 All Black halfback, Mark Powell Robinson played mainly at centre in provincial rugby for Taranaki, Wellington and later Canterbury. In Super 12 rugby he played for the Crusaders, with whom he won two titles: in 2000 and 2002. It was while playing with the Crusaders that he played his only international rugby, two Tests in 2000 and seven in 2002.
