11 years ago, Zach Guildford was part of the All-Blacks squad that won the Rugby World Cup in that epic final against France in Auckland.  By then he had also won a Commonwealth Games gold medal for the sevens.  He was friends and teammates with Richie, Dan and co and went on to earn $500,000 a year.
His life today looks very different.  He has no money and is on home detention in Christchurch.  But he is also the happiest and most at peace he has been in years.
This conversation covers alot of ground- some fantastic memories, but also alot of painful ones and I can't thank Zac enough for his raw honesty.
