Covid has taught us to be kind and to see sport for what it is, the way the warriors treated my friend Stephen Kearney after all he has done in the biggest sacrifice in any team sport makes me sad. whoever decided this could not see the big picture, you’ve lost a fan.

Sometimes I wasn’t good enough and in normal times I paid the price, I accept that! In these extraordinary times of covid I was hoping owners and CEO’s would put profit and short term results second to people retaining their jobs for at least the medium term, maybe I’m a dreamer

When I was really struggling with my mental health, I asked a priest who is God. I was asking God for help and wasn’t hearing anything in return, the priest told me God is love. Once I shared my mental pain I found love around me from my friends and family.God is love

Hard to put into words the effect BJ had on many of us, sometimes we didn’t realize until after the fact, but that was his way, lead others with humility and vision, but also let us find the way, he will be missed, feeling for the family RIP legend

It was hard for me to watch the AB’s after I stop playing because not being out there hurt, two players helped me go from ex player to a Fan, Christian Cullen, and Dan Carter, enjoy your next phase my friend, thanks

That's a bad decision from the ref. Yellow yes but not a red. Fullback had eyes on ball and no intent, common sense I feel sorry for all those that have paid good money to watch a test match.

So proud of rugby both AB and Irish supporters staying and supporting Joe and Rory two great rugby men. Can’t understand how people then don’t understand how important the Haka is to our country, it’s celebrates our culture, promotes unity of race and religion.

France will smell a chance as 3 big players are out with injury for the AB’s, I’m thinking it will be a close game but we will win in last 10 min. What are your thoughts?

I agree with Ardie Pacifica has given so much to our game and we need to give back, only thing I would say is the player should be exempt from born status as so many Pasifika parents sacrifices to give children an education etc, world body make the vote results public
