Five years later he becomes All Black captain. Fourteen years later he retires after 148 test caps and the reputation as the greatest All Black of all time.

Richie Macaw is on my list of the greatest achievers during my lifetime. That list includes Neil Armstrong, Pink Floyd, Nelson Mandela plus some others too many to mention here.

Exactly - it was his knowledge of the laws. So the armchair players and commentators wasted years whining about his "cheating". They still do - just read, and laugh out loud at many of the comments on the various McCaw videos on KZfaq.

International debut Although the then 20-year-old McCaw had only played seventeen matches for Canterbury, John Mitchell, the new All Black coach, selected him for the 2001 end of year tour to Ireland, Scotland and Argentina. This led Josh Kronfeld, a former All Black openside flanker, to criticise the selection: "You might as well just give All Black jerseys to everybody. The fact they picked guys off one NPC season is bloody incredible".[13] en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richie_McCaw

Phil Waugh stated when McCaw retired that McCaw was not a cheat, he was just doing the job of a number 7, which is in part to play to the boundaries of the rules. Waugh rated McCaw as the best, and he would know a lot more about openside play than anyone that has commented here. McCaw also was often penalised when he had done nothing wrong, often due to his speed and understanding of the rules. E.g. the last penalty of the 2014 Super Rugby final.
