Nehe Milner-Skudder

Nehe Milner-Skudder gave me one of my favorite World Cup memories: that corner try just before halftime in the 2015 final, the All Blacks' first points on the night. Winning the World Rugby Breakthrough Player of the Year that same season marked him as a generational talent. What stays with me, though, is how injuries kept interrupting a career that should have soared, and how he kept going anyway, all the way to Rugby New York. I respect athletes who burn brightly even briefly, and Milner-Skudder etched himself into rugby history in a single luminous campaign.
