Richie McCaw 148

Cordwainer from Melville

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.

Price: $25

PM says the ‘war on farming’ is over, at Fieldays’ Mystery Creek

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The rural sector will pull the country out of recession, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon told farmers at Mystery Creek on Tuesday.

Luxon’s main message was that farmers are not villains, they are “partners” of the Government and the saviours of the New Zealand economy.
