I started reading Dan Carter’s self-help book for a joke. I finished it a changed man

Summer reissue: The Art of Winning has been on the bestseller list for over a month now. Sam Brooks, who is only vaguely familiar with the concept of Dan Carter, reviews – and is surprised by what he finds.

First published on 21 September, 2023.

I have never, in my life, seen a minute of Dan Carter playing rugby. This isn’t unique to him – there are many New Zealanders I have never seen play rugby. To me he is more of a concept – if you’d ask me to name a rugby player, his name would be one of the first to come to mind.

Given that, there are three things I know for sure about Dan Carter:

He has played rugby many times, successfully.
He has worn Jockeys at least once, successfully.
He has written three books, including this one, and one with The Spinoff founder Duncan Greive.

I’m not a snob. Anybody can write a book, and a rugby player writing a book does not immediately mean it will be bad more than a writer playing rugby will immediately drop and fumble the ball (this writer exclud

Dan Carter: My Autobiography

July 15, 2024

Recognised as the best first five-eight in the world, Dan Carter is an international legend as well as a local one. As a fan of Dan Carter I tempered my expectations for this book, and was glad I did so.

Interesting, and still worth the read, but not a lot of groundbreaking stuff in here. Duncan Grieve has done a pretty good job of finding Dan's voice in the writing, but hard to go past the decision to stop the story at the end of the RWC2019 Semifinal. That really just clips the end of the narrative.

Beyond that, Dan provides some behind the scenes details of his Canterbury, Crusaders and All Blacks teams, a bit of his family background and a torturous catalogue of his injuries and rehabilitation processes.

I honestly hadn't realised just how injured he was and how much he had to fit a few games of rugby in between injuries.

3.5 stars, rounded down.
