    Sam Cane will return to his post as All Blacks captain in 2022

    Sam Cane will return to his post as All Blacks captain in 2022


    That from assistant coach John Plumtree after confirming that Sam Whitelock would return to the role for the rest of the campaign, after missing the bulk of the Rugby Championship on paternity leave.

    That sees Ardie Savea drop down to vice-captain after an interim captaincy role during the Rugby Championship.

    Plumtree says Cane's the man for the group, once he's back to full rugby fitness next season.
