Richie McCaw
Here are three things I have learnt about Richie McCaw:
1. Richie McCaw didn't really understand who the all blacks were until The 87 World Cups.
2. He wasn't the most talented player, but he did have a massive desire to join the All Blacks
3. He got targeted by many teams, by people who had already been banned for weeks.
If there were more I'd want to learn about Richie McCaw it would be what did he do before he became an all black?
Kia ora Aedan,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these facts about Richie McCaw! Richie McCaw is a sporting legend and I really like your second fact about him. It just goes to show that with hard work, anything is possible.
I like the way you have used numbers to list the different things you learnt about Richie McCaw. I know that he is retired from rugby now and from what I heard, I think he's training to become a pilot! I'm not too sure what he did before he became and All Black, but I think he was still quite young when he joined the team.
What do you think it would have been like, being captain of the All Blacks? How do you think you would feel if you were the captain? Personally, I don't think I could handle that much pressure from my team and the entire nation. I think with being the All Blacks captain, there are high expectations of you and you team - I don't think I'd enjoy the pressure! What do you think?
Keep up the great blogging!
