Richie McCaw 148
By Richie McCaw
2016, hardback, oversize format, 312 pages, colour.
Excellent condition.
This lavish retrospective is something special. A collector’s item, it features over 500 photographs, close to 50,000 words and weighs in at around 3kgs. The book devotes two pages to each of the 148 tests Richie played.
McCaw has been part of rugby like no other player and led a team that dominated world rugby in his era. This book illustrates the pride McCaw and the All Blacks feel in the black jersey, the lengths they are prepared to lay their bodies on the line for their country, and the satisfaction of a job well done. It is a fitting tribute to a man regarded by many as the greatest player of all time.
What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital?
How long it’ll take depends on who you ask and you can measure it in years, elections, or Rugby world cups.
But Hamilton City will eventually be home to more people than Wellington City - likely in somewhere between 24 or 34 years according to Statistics NZ and Waikato University.
What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
