Brian McKechnie
Brian John McKechnie (born 6 November 1953 in Gore, Southland, New Zealand) was a "double All Black", that is, he represented New Zealand in both rugby union and cricket.
He played 26 matches for the All Blacks as a first five-eighth and fullback, most memorably being the player to kick the winning penalty goal against Wales in 1978 when Andy Haden dived out off a lineout near full-time and was apparently awarded a penalty (the referee later said the penalty was for a completely separate incident and was clearly visible in video footage) which would secure the "Grand Slam" for the All Blacks against the home country unions.
As a cricketer, McKechnie was an economical right-arm pace bowler and useful lower-order batsman who played 14 one day games for the Black Caps, including the 1975 and 1979 World Cup tournaments in England. His last match for New Zealand was the infamous "underarm match" against Australia in 1981, when McKechnie was the batsman who faced Trevor Chappell's underarm delivery in the final ball of the match. McKechnie represented Otago in domestic competitions from 1971–72 to 1985–86. He later served on the national selection panel.
With Lynn McConnell, he wrote ''McKechnie: Double All Black: An Autobiography'' (Craigs, Invercargill) in 1983.〔(Nat Lib of NZ ) Retrieved 1 December 2012.〕
