    An absolute legend of the game. One of the best, ever, has retired.

    Some highlight reel this:

    Watched 4 mins and saw one piece of brilliance

    Needs a massive edit and refocus

    @mikethesnow 4 minutes in, he scores his debut try against Wales.

    It's longer than most highlight reels because DC had a habit of doing rather good things on the Rugby paddock.

    Know what he’s lauded for, don’t need to see endless clips of his evolving hairstyle.

    Original comment stands

    Needs the Sum 41 ‘All Killer, No Filler’ treatment

    Don’t be so precious mate, he wasn’t knocking DC just the puff piece masquerading as a highlights reel and the thing is if there was ever a player that didn’t need a puff piece it would be Carter.

    I’m disappointed you thought I was being remotely serious. Good White knighting though.

    Always difficult to know with you half-Jock/half-colonial types.

    @catogrande I thought Jocks (and the Irish and the Welsh) are colonials?

    Then again you were Rome's colonials...so as the wheel turns..

    The highest compliment I could give DC is that he was even better than Mike Gibson.

    And he was.

    The most amazing first five ever seen. A marvel of what's capable on a rugger field.

    Shame he sullied it all by signing for the blues. The Australians of New Zealand.

    A bit like with Jessica Alba with thrush, or prime Sharon Stone with a yeast infection - nearly perfect😉

    Depends on whether one's ancestry is Anglo-Saxon, Norman, Dane or Celt. A total fish-mash. Brought home nicely at a soccer match between England and Germany. England fans had recently sung "If it wants for the English you'd be Krauts" to French fans and the Germans then sung to our boys "If it wasn't for the Saxons you'd be Welsh".
