congrats to RM ...
Richie McCaw named IRB player of the year
It is the second successive year McCaw has landed the award and the third time in total, having also been honoured in 2006.
The 29-year-old flanker won the vote ahead of fellow All Black Mils Muliaina, Victor Matfield, Imanol Harinordoquy, David Pocock and Kurtley Beale.
It completed a hat-trick of awards for New Zealand, who were named team of the year with Graham Henry unveiled as coach of the year for a record fourth time.
