Recently retired All Blacks captain Richie McCaw created a stir around town yesterday, being spotted at the gym and a local cafe.
McCaw trained at Aspire Health and Sports in Bethlehem yesterday morning before stopping for a coffee with girlfriend Gemma Flynn at Tauranga's Love Rosie and visiting Tauranga Intermediate.
Both McCaw and Flynn, a Black Sticks player, happily posed for photos when approached by fans.
One such fan was Liam Morrison, who celebrated his 17th birthday yesterday.
