Robbie Deans is Canterbury aristocracy - and comes from a long line of distinguished rugby players who have represented both the beloved province and New Zealand. He has been an assistant coach to the All Blacks, and the driving force behind the Canterbury Crusaders, one of the leading teams in the International Rugby Super 12 and Super 14 competition. Now, controversially the first Kiwi coach of the All Blacks arch nemesis - the Wallabies, he faces a challenging year of divided loyalties. With fierce pride Cantabrian rugby supporters worship the ground he walks on, and this book will capture the essence of a super coach.
