Short Biography
Richard Hugh "Richie" McCaw (born 31 December 1980) is a New Zealand rugby union player, the current test captain of the All Blacks – the country's national team. He is the most capped test rugby player of all time. He predominantly plays in the openside flanker position for the New Zealand, Crusaders and Canterbury teams, but had also played as blindside flanker and no. 8. McCaw is considered by many as the greatest openside flanker of all time, with his ability to anticipate play and adaptability to referee's law interpretations two of his key attributes. He was raised in Kurow in rural North Otago, before moving to Dunedin in 1994 to board at Otago Boys' High School. In 1999 he moved to Christchurch to study at Lincoln University and was selected in the national under-19 team. The following year he played for the Under-21s and Canterbury in the National Provincial Championship (NPC), before debuting in 2001 for the Crusaders in Super Rugby.
