World Cup winning Skipper, Richie McCaw talks to The Rugby Site about dealing with set backs such as injury during a playing career.
“…it’s easy to feel like it’s all wrong, but the big thing that I’ve found is that you need to identify the one or two things that you need to improve on or you need to change….little things can be the difference to making the game go your way again…”
_Graham Henry on Richie McCaw:_ Very modest and very intelligent with seven straight A's in his first year at university. An outstanding number 7, the only man to win the IRB player of the year on three occasions. He leads by example, he sets objectives, he has the respect of the troops and a great feel for the moment. Up there with Wilson Whineray, Brian Lochore, Graham Mourie, Buck Shelford and Sean Fitzpatrick as one of the great post war captains of New Zealand rugby. He is a very special man.
