Injury has forced Welsh and British and Irish Lions number 8 Michael Owen to retire from rugby.
A bit gutted about this personally as I thought he still had something to offer to the Welsh side if he started playing well again

Sad news, when inform he really played some great rugby.

All the best to him!

Always lacked a little physicallity and aggression, but he possesed some of the best handling skills I've seen from a forward. Top bloke too, probably a little too nice for his own good. Wouldn't be surprised if he entered the coaching side of things, as he's an intelligent bloke.

Sorry to hear this, I was still hoping that he would put on a red jersey once more.
Seemed like he had a good run in the GP.
