A nice moment.

The All Blacks are back home in New Zealand following their World Cup win and they brought the Webb Ellis trophy to a very special place today.

Sonny Bill Williams, Dan Carter, Jerome Kaino and Liam Messam paid their respects to a former teammates Jerry Collins who died in a car accident in France earlier this year.

Collins, who would have turned 35 yesterday,  won 48 caps for New Zealand and his teammates showed he’s still in their thoughts.

Dan Carter also paid tribute to Collins on Instagram.
