Morris Edwin (Morrie) Wood

Morris Edwin "Morrie" Wood (9 October 1876 – 9 August 1956) was a New Zealand rugby union player and athletics champion. As second five-eighth, Wood represented the provinces of Bush, Hawke's Bay, Wellington, Canterbury, and Auckland.

Wood was a member of the New Zealand national team from 1901 to 1904. His 12 matches included New Zealand's first international test, against Australia.[1] In his final match, he captained the Auckland province to a 13-0 defeat of the touring British and Irish Lions.[2]

Wood's 1903 long jump of 21 ft 8 1⁄2 in (6.62 m) would have been the New Zealand record,[3] but was eventually assessed as being wind-assisted and so was not ratified.[4] He went on to win the long jump at the 1904 New Zealand athletics championships, his leap of 19 ft 7 1⁄2 in (5.98 m) taking the title from Te Rangi Hīroa.[5][6]
