Ioane posted a picture to social media with the caption “put that in the book” to double down on his villain status in Ireland.  Speaking to Newstalk ob体育接口’s Jason Pine, Barrett said he believed Ioane can stamp his mark in Ireland.  “He sounded me out about 10 days ago and just asked a few questions,” he said.  “He didn’t say a whole lot, so I didn’t get a good inkling of where his head or heart was, but look, I woke up on my day off and the news had dropped on my phone.  “It gave me 24 hours, without having a barrage of questions at training the morning I went in there, so I got all of them yesterday.  “He’ll go great. It’s a great place to develop and he’ll see a lot of improvements up here as a player, and get out of his comfort zone in Auckland and the Blues and [it’s] a chance to grow.  “I think it’s a great challenge for him.”  Leinster's Tommy O'Brien and Jordie Barrett celebrate following the Investec Champions Cup quarter-final match at the Aviva Stadium, Dublin in Ireland. (Photo by Damien Eagers/PA Images via Getty Images) Barrett admits it’s been an adjustment for him, but he’s loving life in Ireland, especially on the golf course.  When Barrett announced his move to Ireland, it came as a shock as most players tend to take their sabbatical in Japan, like his brother Beauden did last year.  In fact, he was the first All Black since 2009 to choose Europe over Japan, when Dan Carter signed with Perpignan.  While there were concerns around his workload due to the demands of European rugby, Barrett said he had an extended break while the Six Nations took place in February and March.  During that time, a limited of matches were played and when they were, youngsters were given opportunities to prove themselves.  That rest has helped Barrett stay focused to help Leinster charge towards winning titles.  In the URC, they have only lost once this season – by one point to the Bulls in Pretoria – and hold an eight-point lead over the defending champions Glasgow Warriors with four games remaining in the regular season.  They face the Warriors in the final match of the season but will be confident after crushing them 52-0 in the European Championship quarter-finals last weekend.  Barrett, who has played nine games thus far between second five and fullback, admits there have been some easier games, but plenty of tough battles.  Overall, Barrett believes he’s become a better rugby player for the experience.  “I reserve...

It should have been a routine procedure, but he developed osteomyelitis from an infection. What followed was not only a physical struggle but an emotional descent that would push him to the brink.  Fourteen surgeries later, and nearly five years after Gleeson began legal action, a jury found doctor Richard Edelson guilty of medical negligence for failing to properly disinfect the plates inserted into Gleeson’s legs before the initial operation. Gleeson, now 34, was awarded US$20.4 million (NZ$35.7m) in damages.  What was meant to be a three-month stint on the sidelines turned into a nightmare of medical complications and forced Gleeson to retire, having made 59 appearances for the Timbers and winning eight caps for the All Whites between 2011 and 2014.  The fallout has been brutal for Gleeson, who struggles to complete mundane tasks such as exercising. The mental toll has been equally devastating.  Speaking to Newstalk ob体育接口’s Jason Pine on Weekend Sport, Gleeson says he reached a point where he considered taking his life.  “I’d been prescribed so many opioids, like painkillers and anti-anxiety medication, I filled this pill jar up with enough pills that I know that if I took it all at once it would kill me.  “I drove out a few times to different places around Portland with that. I had that around me for ... a few months and there were some close calls where I thought that that was going to be the day.  “There were points I just didn’t want to live any more. Simple as that.  “But I never went through with it, which I’m happy about. The last few years have been a slow climb out of a very deep, dark hole.”  After his initial surgery, things appeared normal but, after two weeks, an infection on his right leg appeared. Antibiotics initially worked, but the infection worsened and he needed a second operation.  At this point, pus was coming out of the wound and Gleeson was given a PICC line - a type of catheter - that was pumping antibiotics from his leg to an artery near the heart. It was a further two weeks before the plate in his right leg came out.  Days later, problems began in his left leg.  Portland Timbers goalkeeper Jake Gleeson shows his disappointment after the the 4-1 loss against Real Salt Lake in 2017. Photo / Getty Images  “I saw that same redness, same warmth, same everything that was a sign of infection, and they pulled that plate out straight away.  “Because I developed osteomyelitis in my right leg, essentially the infection had travelled through my blood and settled on the foreign hardware on my left leg.  “If they had just removed the plate on the first surgery, or even checked the underside of it to know that that’s where the infection was, we could have avoided a lot more of the surgeries that I went through.”  Gleeson had another appointment with Edelson, who was pleased with the recovery of the left leg, but problems were still occurring with the right.  Despite raising concerns, Gleeson was told “it’s just bad blood flow, the wound will heal and you’re fine”.  An angry Gleeson consulted another team doctor and was immediately rushed to hospital, where he had three surgeries in five days to clear the osteomyelitis and dead bone.  “They had to go in and chunk out parts of my bone and there was dead tissue in there,” he recalls.  “My body had gone septic and I had a 40-degree temperature, cuddling a bag of ice on my couch with all this medicine still coursing through me every week.”  It was at this point that he found out Edelson had not properly sanitised an orthopaedic plate, after realisi...
