Remembering Sir Brian Lochore

From everyone at Genesis we send our condolences to the friends and family of Sir Brian Lochore. 

A legend in every sense of the word; Lochore was a former New Zealand All Blacks captain and World Cup-winning coach. As an All Blacks player, 1964-1971, Lochore made 68 appearances and captained his country on 46 occasions. 

All Blacks head coach Steve Hanson said: "Sir Brian Lochore is one of the most respected men in New Zealand, not only in rugby but all facets of New Zealand life, as well as being hugely respected and held in high regard around the world." 

As we remember Brian, we reflect back to the creation of our edition The Lions. Not only did Brian open up many doors for this title, his participation was indispensable. The Lions tells the complete history of the British and Irish rugby union team, 1888-2005. For more information on this now sold out edition, click here.
