His Legacy
Benoit Dauga drove fear into the hearts of the opposition. He was monster of a man, who was known for his size and power. But he had skill as well. He had 63 caps for Franc, from 1964 to 1972, scoring 11 tries in the process. He was captain of France on nine occasions and he won the Grand Slam with France in 1968 as well as outright championship wins in 1967 and 1970.
Danie Craven named Benoit Dauga as one of the five greatest rugby players ever.
