Crusaders legend Richie McCaw revealed that watching the Super Rugby play‑offs from the sideline has at times made him want to strap back on the boots.

But the former All Blacks skipper says he is content with retirement from rugby and is proud to see his former Super Rugby franchise continue to dominate after winning the title last year.

McCaw told 1 NEWS that he was sitting in the stands last week and he remembers the times that he was lucky enough to do that.

McCaw offered some advice to his old team, saying that they cannot afford to let errors creep into their semi‑final showdown with the Hurricanes.

He says it is the little mistakes, back to back mistakes or penalties, allowing the momentum to go against the Crusaders, it can just be one or two things like that.

The Crusaders will host the Hurricanes at 7.35pm Saturday while the Lions will host the Waratahs at 1.05am Sunday.
