    Welsh rugby icon Sir Gareth Edwards believes Sam Warburton will be similarly revered post-retirement

    Welsh rugby icon Sir Gareth Edwards believes Sam Warburton will be similarly revered post-retirement


    The toll of rugby and returning from double surgery has forced Warburton to call time on his career at just 29.

    Warburton led two British and Irish Lions tours as skipper and captain Wales in 49 tests including two World Cups.

    He says his legacy will be there for all time and there's plenty of post career opportunities for him.

    Warburton's last game of rugby was the drawn third British and Irish Lions test against the All Blacks at Eden Park last year.
