    Last game for Jerome Kaino for the Blues at home at Eden Park!

    He’s been a monster for the Blues and a fantastic stalwart for New Zealand rugby.

    Some nice, sincere words from him at the end!

    Go well, big man!

    Didn’t realize he was retiring. At his peak Kaino was very good the kind of player you would want playing for you rather than against you
