The Irish Independent's Ruaidhri O'Connor pays tribute to John Hayes as it appears he will not be part of the Munster squad for the 2011-12 season.
"John Hayes could have played his last game for Munster after the province confirmed they have no plans to extend his contract beyond the World Cup.
The legendary prop will turn 38 in November and was left out the 45-man squad published by the province earlier this week, fuelling speculation that he is set to retire after the tournament in New Zealand."
