Richard John Knight played rugby union for Otago between 1982 and 1992. He played as a lock. He holds the record for the most games played for Otago at 170.[1] He scored six tries for Otago. He said, jokingly of his tries, that Otago coach Laurie Mains "used to give him a rocket for not doing the hard stuff" whenever he scored a try[2]
He also played for the South Island and the Possibles in 1986 but missed out on making the All Blacks that year.[3][2] He played in the Otago team that won the 1991 National Provincial Championship.[4]
