This is probably a good idea. Richie McCaw's recent performances have been anything but medocre..... He is still an inspirational leader who is playing at the top of his game. Sam Cane can step into the no. 7 role (with Matt Todd as back up) and also for someone like Kieran Read to gain experience as captain.

This provides an opportunity for a formal trial run of any proposed succession plans! It can only be good for New Zealand rugby.....

APV, Have you gone back to the whiskey? Even as the NH's foremost Windup Merchant, this one takes the biscuit and puts you solidly in position to challenge Trinats for the "World's Greatest Bullshitter" title.

McCaw is right, there is too much rugby played by elite players each year. Those at the top seem to acknowledge it, right before adding to an already long season. Something needs to be done allow these players to have a proper rest each year.
