chasing great!

Have you seen the trailer for the movie called Chasing great.
It is a documentary about the world famous Richie McCaw.

I watched the trailer and I have looked at the All Blacks website and I have chosen three facts that I didn't know about him.

#3 In 2011 Richie had a foot injury.

#2 Richie is the most ever capped All Black.

#1 In 2003 in the rugby world cup he won the New Zealander player of the year award.

Did you learn anything from these 3 facts just above.

  1. Kia ora Sam,

    You have found out some really interesting facts about Richie McCaw. I never realised that Richie had a foot injury in 2011. Did you find out how long this affected him for? How long was he unable to play rugby for?

    Richie is a great sportsman who has dedicated his life to rugby. He has achieved so much with in his rugby career such as New Zealand Player of the Year and he is the most capped rugby player in the world. This means that Richie has played the most games with an international rubgy team than any other rugby player in the world. His name will be remembered for many, many years to come.

    Have you watched his documentary 'Chasing Great' before? I found it very fascinating and emotional when he played his last test match.

    I hope you have a great day,
    Megan :)

    1. Hi Megan, I know he hid his injury during the World Cup so he could still play on. So it didn't stop him playing. I'm not sure how long it was injured for.
      No I haven't watched the documentary yet. I will put it on my list for after our family holiday.
