Retiring All Black Captain Kieran Read talks to Kathryn about the Rugby World Cup and his latest venture, his biography, Kieran Read : Straight 8. Written with broadcaster Scotty Stevenson, it is an insight into the rugby playing boy from Papakura who first donned the black jersey as a 23 year old, which lead to 127 test appearances and the captaincy. He was part of the victorious 2011 and 2015 Rugby World Cup teams and was named World Player of the Year in 2013. It's been a whirlwind few months, reflecting on the Tokyo tournament and looking ahead to life after test rugby.
