		“Buck” Shelford captured the imagination of the New Zealand rugby public during his six years in the All Blacks, during which he played 48 times and was unbeaten as test captain between 1988 and 1990.
		Shelford was a “follow me” leader who led by an example of strength and determination and, at times, no little courage.
		Shelford was first selected for the All Blacks in 1985, became an integral member of the winning World Cup team in 1987 and later that year, took over the captaincy.

		WAYNE SHELFORD, poised to sign a three-year deal as Saracens' new director of rugby, outlined his blueprint for an expected revolution at Vicarage Road next season to the club's hierarchy and playing staff, before returning to his native New Zealand to finalise travel arrangements.
		Shelford was also staggered at the number of missed tackles, another facet of the game he is clearly looking to improve upon.
		Shelford, who will not take player on the pre-season tour of Japan if they are not in an acceptable physical condition, issued a stark warning to the entire squad.

		Wayne Shelford, whose own axing as All Black captain in 1990, sparked a "Bring Back Buck" campaign, said today Blackadder was the type of player "the rest of the team and the rest of New Zealand would follow to the end of the earth".
		Shelford, a panellist on the programme, said Blackadder was widely respected in rugby circles.
		Shelford said Blackadder, on present form, would command a place in the All Blacks' team and the "leadership qualities he is showing with the Canterbury side are brilliant".

		Wayne Shelford, hired as the big-name saviour of Saracens barely a year ago, was shown the door at Vicarage Road yesterday as the north London club sacked their entire coaching staff following yet another troubled domestic season.
		Shelford was increasingly at odds with his senior players and did little to improve relations when he criticised the lack of leadership within his team as they battled to avoid relegation last season.

		WAYNE SHELFORD, the former All Black's captain, remains confident of finalising a deal to become Saracens' new director of rugby, despite watching the men in fl slip to a sixth straight defeat at home to Bristol Shoguns on Sunday, May 12.
		Shelford, with a three-year contract on the table, took his place on the Sarries' bench but was powerless to stop an injury time penalty kick from Felipe Contepomi clinching a two-point victory for the visitors.
		Shelford has been staggered at some of Sarries' statistics in their last three games, not least the the number of missed tackles.

		Shelford joined the unauthorized Cavaliers tour of South Africa in 1986 and, when he was eligible again for the All Blacks, was chosen for the second test against Australia but had to withdraw because of injury.
		Shelford then led the All Blacks on one of their great periods of domination, going through unbeaten from 1987 to 1990, with only a drawn test against Australia in 1988 to mar the perfect record.
		By the beginning of 1990, however, Shelford's form was not as dominant as it had been and after two tests against Scotland he was dropped, prompting a public outcry.

		SARACENS are believed to have resumed talks with former All Black Wayne Shelford with a view to unveiling him as the successor to Francois Pienaar for next season.
		'Buck' Shelford is regarded as an All Black legend, earning a reputation as a one of the greatest number eight's of all time and was one of the leading candidates to take over the national job after the resignation of Wayne Smith last year.
		A fearless competitor, Shelford took over the New Zealand captaincy after the World Cup in 1997 and inspired the All Blacks to a period of utter dominance when they remained unbeaten for three years.

		The day Wayne Shelford was formally announced as the new Head Coach at Saracens, I gave him a lift from the Vicarage Road press conference back to the Bramley Road training ground.
		Shelford made no bones about the fact that, as he saw it, his squad were patently not up to the job of winning Zurich Premiership rugby matches.
		There are so many similarities when it comes to the tenures of Pienaar and Shelford: both successful leaders on the field, but came with no coaching reputation; both single-minded and brusque; both ultimately disliked by their players; both failures when it came to results on the field.

		SARACENS finally confirmed the arrival of Wayne Shelford, as head coach, and Andy Goode, as fly-half, as well as announcing Reebok as the new kit manufacturer, at a press conference at Vicarage Road on Thursday, June, 6th.
		The arrival of Shelford, a former captain of the All Blacks, and Goode, on three and two-year contracts respectively, has been muted for some time.
		Shelford, capped 48 times by his country, fills the void left by the resignation of Francois Pienaar and has already introduced a fitness assessment of the current squad, who will be monitored at regular intervals throughout the season.

	Shelford New All Blacks Coach
		April 25: Wayne Shelford will become the third former All Black recruited by a Premiership club in the last six months when he signs a contract as the new head coach of Saracens.
		Wayne Shelford will tomorrow sign a three-year contract as the new head coach of Saracens and will be cheered to learn that the France back Thomas Castaignède is available to help revive the fortunes of the north London club.
		Shelford, who won 22 caps for the All Blacks between 1986 and 1990, has subsequently had coaching stints in Italy and North Harbour but, as Francois Pienaar found, even highly respected former Test captains can lose their way in the increasingly brutal English club environment.

		Ross' admiration for Shelford, a legend in New Zealand and world rugby, and his wife's British passport meaning he will not count as an overseas player appear to be two of the significant factors in his arrival into the Zurich Premiership.
		"With Wayne Shelford at the club, I knew that it would be an awesome opportunity to play under him, and with other players such as, Christian Califano, Richard Hill, Tim Horan, Kyran Bracken and Thomas Castaignde, it'll be excellent to train and play with these guys.
		Shelford, currently tying up loose ends in his homeland before officially taking up his post, was equally delighted with his first capture since he was confirmed as head coach.

		If ever there was one moment when Wayne "Buck" Shelford embedded his name forever into rugby's rich history, it was during the infamous "Battle of Nantes" in 1986.
		The French public were gobsmacked as an over-eager pitchside cameraman filmed the stomach-turning surgery, and even more so when Shelford returned to the field and carried on playing.
		It was the only time Shelford was on the losing side during his distinguished international career, a result which he appropriately describes as a "faux pas".

		Australia and South Africa, who won the 1991 and 1995 World Cups respectively, ebbed after the retirement of their captains, Nick Farr-Jones and Francois Pienaar and, though the Wallabies wobbled after their 1999 triumph, it was only when John Eales stood down as skipper in 2001 that they started to slide down the rankings.
		Shelford, Farr-Jones, Pienaar and Eales were not just outstanding leaders, but also their teams' most influential player.

		But despite their spending spree, Shelford and his coaching team will not be around for the next campaign, as he, his brother Darrell, Tim Wright and Pat Fox all depart.
		Shelford took over the reins at Saracens this season after a long search following the departure of South African Francois Pienaar midway through the 2001/2 season, with former Fiji and Wallaby coach Greg Smith taking over briefly in the interim, before sadly passing away after leaving the club.
		Shelford made his 22nd and final All Black appearance in 1990 against Scotland, dropped in favour of the emerging Zinzan Brooke, leading to a cult 'Bring Back Buck' campaign by many fans, some of whom sensed an Auckland-led selection conspiracy.

		From five yards away Shelford steamed in to retaliate and delivered a single swinging haymaker from behind that dropped Richard's like a sack of spuds.
