New Zealand’s Richie McCaw tempted to play on after World Cup triumphThe New Zealand captain, Richie McCaw, said after lifting the Webb Ellis Cup for the second time in four years that it was the proudest moment of his career and one that was making him consider postponing his international retirement.
McCaw, who has won 148 caps, was taken off one minute from the end to a standing ovation from a crowd who thought they would not see him in action again, but the 34-year-old flanker said he may be back for more.
“This is the proudest moment of my career,” said McCaw. “We said after winning the World Cup four years ago that we get straight back on the road again and we did. We finished the final well and that has been a mark of this team since 2011. We played some damned good rugby, and although we lost a bit of composure in the second half, we came home strongly.”
McCaw said before the tournament that he would make a decision about his future after it had finished, but he will take his time. “I still do not want to think about it,” he said. “I want to enjoy this success: how could you get enough of this? We will worry about that afterwards. I just want to have a good time with a great bunch of men having played in a wonderful World Cup final. I am really proud of this team and being able to wear the jersey. If you get moments like this, why would you ever call it a day?”
