This morning it was announced that former All Blacks captain Tane Norton had died at the age of 81.
Tane played 27 tests for the All Blacks and led them for nine games, including the 1977 series win over the Lions.
Following his on-field retirement he continued to serve the sport as a coach and administrator with his local club, and sat as NZ Rugby vice-president in 2001 and president in 2003.
Then, in 2006, he was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to rugby.
To reflect on Tane Norton's career is Keith Quinn, one of our most iconic sports commentators and broadcasters, joins Jesse.
