@MajorRage 100% worthy. Sad news but things had gone quiet around his return. Stink that his knee never came back
A key member of our 2011 bomb squad and a really good AB. All the best for life after (playing) rugby bro.

"Dagg, Dagg, beautiful running, Israel Dagg, still goooing, Is-rael Dagg. Hooo! Hooo! What a try!"
A key part of the gang who ended the curse in 2011. At his best, Izzy was magical. All the best for his career post-professional Rugby where I am sure the commitment to hard work, excellence and breaking boundaries he learned with the All Blacks will put him in good stead.

It'll be a long long time before we see anyone with a punt as long as his, or facial expressions as contorted. What a dead set legend, played really well on the run through in 2011.
Enjoy retirement fella, there's always a second career in the world Gurning championships

Yeah he just flew into the RWC XV with, well, Superman performances

@Snowy Why, that was NZ Public Enemny No 1 - THANOS of RWC 2011
Because my grandmother was capable of eluding him.
No disrespect to Izzie of course.

@Machpants That image loses a bit of effectiveness when you notice who missed the tackle...
Actually improves it.

No 2 wasn't it? No1 was Graham
Henry I thought. -

Lest we forget.
Goodbye sweet prince.

I'm sad.
Sad for Izzy that his career ends this way, sad for all his fans that we don't get to see him play anymore, especially sad that he can't finish his career in the black & white hoops like he wanted and that we as Magpies fans would have enjoyed. One of my favourite Magpies! An awesome representative of our region! Okay, I'm going to watch some Youtube videos now ...
Thank you, Izzy!

Could have been slightly better if his left leg was slightly longer and managed to kick Quade in the head as well as the leap.
