The Ireland head coach, Andy Farrell, said it was “the end” for his current squad after they crashed out of the Rugby World Cup at the hands of the All Blacks, bringing a devastating finish to the career of the captain, Johnny Sexton.
“The sad thing for us now is, it’s probably the end for this team,” said Farrell following the quarter-final defeat. “It is for Johnny, and Keith Earls is going to retire as well. Things are going to change.”
