About this listen
Chris Jack was one of the all time greats! A perfect combination of a massive workrate an incredible skillset, deceptive speed and a high rugby IQ which he showed during his 67 cap test career.
In this episode of What a Lad, you'll hear Chris like you've never heard him before. From the good times on winning championships to some of the struggles he faced, there is plenty in this one!
Some parts that stood out for me in this one were...
- How his brothers shaped his work ethic and toughness
- Making the Crusaders early and being thrown straight into a South Africa tour
- Old-school Crusaders culture and earning respect as a young player
- What it actually felt like being around All Black legends
- Scoring on debut and still feeling like he didn’t belong
- How he felt winning the NZ player of the year in 2002
- Dealing with shyness, pressure, and confidence off the field
- What happened during the 2007 RWC QF Loss
- Life after rugby and the lessons he learned
This episode is full of honest perspective from a man who always let his actions do the talking. Chris shares what the jersey meant to him, the cost that came with it, and why he wishes he’d enjoyed the moment more.
