Cam Roigard On Ireland, Eden Park Pressure & Dave Rennie's All Blacks | Nations Championship
•
New Zealand scrum-half Cam Roigard speaks to Stuart McAvoy ahead of the Nations Championship showdown between Ireland and the All Blacks at Eden Park.
Roigard discusses life under new head coach Dave Rennie, New Zealand's fast-paced attacking style, winning Super Rugby with the Hurricanes and his remarkable journey from growing up on a farm in Cambridge to becoming an All Black.
He also reflects on being told as a youngster that he wasn't going to improve, his All Blacks debut, his admiration for Jamison Gibson-Park and the challenge Ireland will bring to Auckland.
He also discusses New Zealand's incredible unbeaten record at Eden Park and why no player wants to be remembered as the team that ends that run.
