    No change of plan for Brodie Retallick despite having just that happen to him

    No change of plan for Brodie Retallick despite having just that happen to him


    The All Black lock is back in New Zealand following the suspension of Japan's Top League competition.

    The prospect of a longer off season to help refresh mind and body was one of the main draw cards for Retallick to play in Japan.

    He says he wants to stick with that even if rugby does resume in New Zealand.
