New Zealand's oldest living rugby player has died, with his family remembering him as a true gentleman. Walter "Wally" Argus spent the last year in a long hard game, battling illness, and died yesterday aged 95, in Christchurch. Wally Argus also received a special visit from Richie McCaw last year. But beyond the rugby history - Wally Argus made his All Black debut playing against Australia in 1946 and played four tests, scoring four tries - his family are remembering the man beyond the player. Wally Argus will be farewelled on Friday at 2pm at Lamb and Hayward - Westpark Chapel in Christchurch.
