When it comes to All Black legacies, Sam Whitelock has left one like few others.  A two-time World Cup winner, World Rugby Player of the Year, All Blacks Captain, as well as the record holder for the most ever caps by an All Black: 153.  This year he called it quits on his two year contract early, playing his final match for the French Club Pau against Fiji in June.  Whitelock managed to find time during his final season to write his autobiography: “View from the Second Row”.  Whitelock told Mike Hosking that he wasn't too keen on writing the book initially, but Wayne Smith won him over.  “He said to me, “What are you gonna give to your grandkids when, you know, your story fades a little bit, but you can give them this hardcopy and say, hey, this is what Grandad did.””  Rugby runs in his family, and the book reflects that.  “It's not only my story, it's the family story.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ex-All Blacks coach Ian Foster joins Martin Devlin on It's Only Sport following confirmation 153-test lock Sam Whitelock will retire from all forms of rugby. Whitelock ended his New Zaland rugby career after last year's Rugby World Cup before enjoying a short playing stint in France. There were reports Whitelock was being courted by new All Blacks coach Scott Robertson to return and wear the black jersey again, but it never eventuated. Foster talks to Devlin about what made Whitelock so special as a player, how good he was technically and how his game evolved, the old-school persona he embodied that differs from modern-day athletes, and more.

Sir Steve Hansen - legendary All Blacks coach who was part of two Rugby World Cup-winning campaigns with the New Zealand men - joins Martin Devlin on It's Only Sport, to talk all about Sam Whitelock's glamorous career in the black jumper. The 153-test lock has officially called time on his rugby career - he hung up his Kiwi rugby boots after last year's World Cup, which preceded a short playing stint in France. Sir Steve chats to Devlin about what made Whitelock a special player, the history of athletes from rural New Zealand towns turning into great All Blacks (Whitelock, Richie McCaw, Dan Carter for example), and much more.

The 35-year-old's ended speculation of a return to New Zealand Rugby. Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Historically, the All Blacks haven't faced too much adversity. But here it is. The team is at odds and ends. The players are being criticised. The coaches and their bosses are being hammered in the press.  Maybe they will falter. Maybe we're watching the unravelling of a once-mighty team. Maybe Silver Lake has bought a dud.  Or maybe, through whatever changes are necessary, and through the pluck and determination of a unit that can only be truly tested when its back is against the wall, the All Blacks will find a way to rise up.”  Those were the words of famed rugby analyst Jack Tame on a radio station called Newstalk ZB, shortly after the All Blacks had lost a home series to Ireland for the first time.  15 months on, I'll be honest, my thoughts have been a bit muddled this week.  Yes, I can rationalise that we've improved massively since that last encounter with the Springboks back in August. A 28-point deficit? Surely that won't be repeated. I can rationalise that we're fit. We're coming off a slightly longer break. We've weathered the Irish storm. Our set piece is a thousand times better than it was, we've barely lost a lineout in the tournament and our outside backs are maybe the most exciting in World rugby.  Buuuuuuuuuut, still. South Africa. They're good.  I feel for Dane Coles missing out. For years he's defined what a hardy, mischievous hooker should be. I'm not bothered by the locking decision either way - Retallick to start and Whitelock on the bench - except to say that Sam Whitelock is a titan of a leader, and I can't imagine a Rugby World Cup victory without him playing a massive role, whether off the bench or in the starting 15.  Buuuuuuuuuut, still. South Africa. Gulp.  The Springboks have named a 7-1 split. Seven forwards on the bench. That's a gamble.  Gambles can backfire.  But if there's anything… any one thing that can push the All Blacks over the edge… that can propel them to Word Champion status… That can secure a record fourth Rugby World Cup… It's the story.  It's that doing so will be the pièce de résistance… the cherry on top of the whole Ian Foster fiasco.  I was not someone who thought Ian Foster was the best man for a job. I'm still not! But I also think he's been treated woefully over the last few years. And in the midst of a pretty awful situation, I think he acted with dignity and grit.  Finishing up as the coach of the World Champions wouldn't just be an incredibly satisfying conclusion to his All Blacks career. It'd be a hell of a middle finger to the haters.  And I can never underestimate the power of stories in sport. Stories are what give sport its magic. I want to finish with another quote of mine from last year:  “Maybe it's lunacy to even ponder a World Cup victory next year. But crazier things have happened in sport.”  “Often the greatest sporting narratives are those in which an athlete or a team overcomes adversity. Victory against all odds.”  I said my thoughts had been a bit muddled this week. My head and my heart in a furious battle. But the closer we get to kick-off, the more clarity I have.  Ultimately, I do know what I think. I think I was right to maintain that sliver of optimism even during trying times. I think the All Blacks will win. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Whitelock family have had a big impact on Canterbury rugby now two brothers will link up again in the South of France. Veteran Crusader and All Black Sam Whitelock has signed a two-year deal with Pau where he will join his younger brother Luke. Sam says the lure of playing with family again was the motivation behind his move. Felicity Reid talks to Lisa Owen.  

Sam Whitelock is heading off after the Rugby World Cup, having signed a two year deal with the French Top 14 Club Pau. The 34 year old is in line to surpass Richie McCaw in being the most capped All Black of all time, with 143 test caps before the World Cup. Newstalk ZB Sports reporter Nathan Limm says that he can't recall an extended time that Whitelock was out with injury, the rugby player seeming to be unbreakable.
