Rugby union is New Zealand's national game and governing sporting preoccupation. If
your timing's good you might catch the revered national team (and reigning world champi-
ons), the All Blacks, in action. The 'ABs' are resident gods - mention Richie McCaw or
Dan Carter in any conversation and you'll win friends for life. Watch some kids chasing a
ball around a suburban field on a Saturday morning, or yell along with the locals in a small-
town pub as the big men collide on the big screen.
