Pfft. When he's 34 he can come to Leeds and bring the average age of our front row down.

His fanboys will be upset, but I couldn't care less. The hyperbole throughout the WC was incredibly nauseating. We survived without him before and we will again. I just hope he doesn't try coming back in 2017 to steal someone else's WC spot.

Now come on, the World Cup would have been a lesser place without him.

I don't think I laughed as much since Jordan Tansey scored against Bradford at Cardiff.

Still laugh every time I see it! Was sat in the main stand towards the other end and presumed he had scored, then was confused when the stand behind the sticks erupted. Couldn't believe it when I saw the reply, fantastic! That is going to be played over and over again for many years to come.

I was with a group of friends watching it on TV while having a few beers and we kept replaying it over and over again, for all the half drunk blokes to laugh and call him a d|ckhead! And all the half drunk females to wonder why they've ended up with overweight drunken northerners instead of him.

Cue Jean Capdouze to inform us of the future of god himself SBW.

He left the All Blacks and the chiefs in disarray........except for the Chiefs winning S15 without him and the AB's going 14 games unbeaten over the season.

He'll put bums on seats for the Chiefs, but will be a bit player in the AB's 2015 RWC squad, if he even makes it.

As for his boxing career.......that's over unless he wants to keep getting points decisions against pensioners.

At least he put in a great performance in the WC Final and showed the Aussies and the world why he's so great.........oh wait.

Worse kind of prof sportsman, total mercenary with no loyalty or commitment to anyone other than himself. Bye bye $BW.

I tend to agree with you about his motivations JB, but he's definitely one of the best second rows I've ever seen, and a huge media draw, so he will be a loss to the game.

I am not his biggest fan and he does come across as a self serving individual, but let's face it, he has maybe 10 to 12 years to earn a decent crust and he will do what he needs.

Mercenary and professional are not too far apart.....both do what they do for money and in the modern game, 1 club players are like hens teeth.

I suspect he will be back in France in 2017.......not sure which code but he will put bums on seats!
