It might be little but the fact that the irish player who putted the shirt down in front of the All Blacks as a tribute to their dead player, he never showed his back, he walked backwards which is a great sign of respect you can give to a person. Someone who shows his back at you means that he doesn't care about you or what is happening. Great move from him! 👍👍 P.S. it was amazing! 🤯🤯

Once upon a time before Rome colonized Western Europe and the Northland and brought Abrahamic religion with them, we were warriors also.
