[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 655351, member: 57663"] To be replaced by who? I agree he is not the player he once was, but he is still hands down the best 7 in NZ, so what is the logic behind easing him out? There is no replacement better, nor for that matter any where near as good. Sam Cane is good, but whos the next cab off the rank going into 2015? Whoever you say they would be leagues away from McCaw, and that is an argument that doesn't even take into account the experience, captaincy, leadership, and mana he brings to the team. He will be there come RWC2015 barring injury of course, and he will be the first to captain a team to back to back RWC wins ;) [/QUOTE]
