Today for NZ Sporting history we look back on the incredible career of Black Fern Kendra Cocksedge - a player who has earned her place among the NZ Rugby Greats she used to look up to.

The Taranaki halfback retired from the game after 30 years of playing in 2022, with a fairy tale Rugby World Cup win on home soil.

When she hung up her boots, she was the most capped Black Fern of all time and the team's record point scorer - titles she still holds, but anticipates not for long.
