All Black captain Richie McCaw has lived his dream with characteristic precision and calculated determination. He's 34 and perhaps the best rugby player ever. But the dream is almost over. He is old by professional sport standards and everyone is asking when he's going to retire. Before his career ends Richie McCaw sets his sights on a risk-all attempt to win the Rugby World Cup back to back. No team has won it a second time in a row. No captain has won it twice. He will either end his career on an impossibly high note or take a nation's dreams down with him. Chasing Great follows Richie McCaw through his final season as he attempts to captain the All Blacks to the first ever-back-to back World Cup win. Until now Richie McCaw's achievements have been well documented, but little is known about the man himself. He has never courted the media and remains intensely private. Chasing Great takes the audience inside his world for the first time and what emerges is a very personal insight ...

What Usain Bolt was to athletics, or Ali to boxing, Richie McCaw is to rugby union. With respect to the current crop of ridiculously talented AB's, there will never be another Richie McCaw again. Richie McCaw - LEGEND! And this comment comes to you from a South African that until recently was a fervent supporter of the Boks. Pure privilege to have watched him play :) - @Friday, January 19, 2018 9:53 AM

I had to laugh when Phil Kearns of all people had the nerve to call Richie McCaw 'smarmy'. To take a leaf out of the aussie commentators book and be totally unoriginal, if you looked up the word 'smarmy' in the dictionary there would be a photo of Phil Kearns. Whats even funnier is that Phil Kearns is now going to have to live the rest of his days knowing that Richie McCaw really was and is the Greatest of all time. Life sure is sweet sometimes. - @Wednesday, March 1, 2017 9:57 AM

this can be found on putlocker. I wish Ritchie could stop speaking in the 3rd person "You really strive to win the world cup". Besides that it was a semi-interesting doco with good production value. Highly unlikely it would have seen the light of day if they had lost the final. - @Wednesday, February 15, 2017 2:30 PM
