Cashead is a dick always has been and as super defensive about the precious all blacks , dont judge everyone they're generally sound enough
Well said, zer0. A shame for them to exit international rugby like that. Unfortunately for Ireland, on the day NZ were very very good, and Ireland were poor. But as NZers should know, one match should not entirely define a career or an era.zer0 wrote:Will say I do feel bad for all those great Irish players who just played their final match (be it absolute final test, or final RWC match).

The sentiment is appreciated, Big Fella, but I'm not sure why you have included/singled out Peter O'Mahony. He's only 30. Barring injury, there's plenty of test rugby and another World Cup in him yet.zer0 wrote:Will say I do feel bad for all those great Irish players who just played their final match (be it absolute final test, or final RWC match).

Ah, didn't realise he's only 30. Thought he was more 33/34.SerjeantWildgoose wrote:The sentiment is appreciated, Big Fella, but I'm not sure why you have included/singled out Peter O'Mahony. He's only 30. Barring injury, there's plenty of test rugby and another World Cup in him yet.
