So the big man is hanging us his big boots for Munster and Ireland. A solid rather than spectacular player. Being the wrong side of 30 and with so many other options he won’t be missed that much by Ireland. Munster is another story

On the contrary, his leadership, consistency, frequent availability for selection and ultimate commitment will be a massive loss to an Irish side whose future success is more uncertain at the minute than it has been for some time. Thanks, CJ
