Dan Carter

Biography

Dan Carter was poetry in boots, the greatest fly-half rugby has ever seen. His 1,598 Test points stand as the all-time record, accumulated through a kicking technique so pure it looked like coaching manual footage. But Carter was far more than a kicker. He could run a backline like a conductor, find gaps that didn't seem to exist, and deliver passes with either hand with perfect weight. Twice World Rugby Player of the Year, twice a World Cup winner, he was the creative heartbeat of the greatest All Blacks team ever assembled. When he finally delivered a masterclass in the 2015 World Cup final, it felt like a career coming full circle - the genius finally confirmed on the biggest stage.
