Australian flyhalf Bernard Foley, nicknamed the 'Iceman' for his composure under pressure, has announced his retirement from professional rugby at the end of the current Japanese season with club Kubota Spears (a top-tier side in Japan's League One competition). The 36-year-old earned 76 caps for Australia and became a national hero during the Wallabies' run to the 2015 Rugby World Cup final, most memorably slotting an 80th-minute penalty to eliminate Scotland in the quarter-finals. His retirement ends a career that also included a Super Rugby title with the New South Wales Waratahs in 2014 and a League One championship with the Spears in 2023.
