Profile

Cane made his international debut for the All Blacks when he came on as a replacement against Ireland in June 2012. A week later he made his first start in the third test of the three-match series and impressed hugely, scoring two tries and making 20 tackles to enhance his reputation as the heir-apparent to Richie McCaw.
