I keep reading comments from people claiming the game is dying because players who have been playing for years are retiring, players retire from the real game all the time too, yet i see no evidence that rugby died when Richie McCaw retired. No one plays a game forever, and while it's always sad to see a legend move on, as long as new players are still joining (and i see no evidence that this isn't happening) the game isn't going to die
