All Blacks loose-head prop Tony Woodcock has marked his 100th All Blacks Test cap in front of a sell-out Bledisloe Cup crowd at Wellington’s Westpac Stadium tonight. Since his debut against Wales at Cardiff in 2002, Woodcock has been one of the game’s toughest toilers at the top level. His durability and consistently high standard as one of the world’s best loose-head props has seen him described as one of rugby’s quiet achievers. At 32, Woodcock now joins a small group of All Blacks to mark the rare milestone - his Rugby World Cup 2011 champion teammates captain Richie McCaw, Mils Muliaina and Keven Mealamu.
