"A dig at England", TTT? Good grief, that's a truly pathetic comment! And, if it had been a dig – Ichkeria’s opening sentence at 10.03 would have been a perfect response to it.

Thanks for your earlier comment, Talbot. I would have thought it obvious - especially in the circumstances of this thread - that my reference to the 'cat(t)' incident had nothing whatsoever to do with England as such. After all, Lomu did just that sort of thing against EVERY team the All Blacks played at the time! Cheers

Sad news, RIP Jonah.

Great, great player. So young. RIP.

A great loss to his family, and then NZ rugby and, from that, World Sport...rip, that is a great legacy that you have left.

A sportsman worthy of respect
