EDITOR’S LETTER
GATEWAY TO THE WILD FRONTIER
Beauden Barrett will have to decide over the summer whether he is going to extend his contract to stay in New Zealand through to 2023.
It all started back in January with the Sydney Sevens and finished with the All Blacks playing Italy in November – so sit back and enjoy reading about what we think were the 50 most memorable moments of 2018.
Auckland came close to being relegated last year and then bounced back to be champions in 2018. The story of how they turned themselves around is quite inspiring.
Thames Valley won the Meads Cup with an outside back at prop and flankers at lock. It was unconventional to say the least.
Liam Squire left home and school when he was just 15. It toughened him up and gave him a resilient streak that is at the core of his game today.
It’s hard to know what to make of the All Blacks end of year tour.
Kieran Read has confirmed he will be heading oshore after the World Cup and that he is now in the last year of his extraordinary All Blacks career.
Pieter-Steph du Toit was one of the most improved Springboks this year and was certainly a player who caused the All Blacks plenty of problems.
You probably won’t agree with all the selections we have made in our World XV based on form shown in 2018.
Richard Bath looks at some of the latest goings on in Northern Hemisphere rugby.
