Reporter Community News

A mighty Kingfisher has fallen. The New Zealand rugby league community is mourning legendary 1970s Kiwis back John Whittaker, who has died from cancer.

The 70-year-old – voted Wellington’s Player of the Century – earned 26 Kiwis caps between 1970 and 1982, and played in four World Cup tournaments. He played a total of 69 games for the Kiwis, including non-internationals, and scored 18 tries.

Whittaker was inducted as a Legend of League in 2012.
