WELLINGTON: Dan Carter's surprise return to New Zealand rugby after five years was welcomed on Thursday, though Waikato Chiefs coach Warren Gatland joked that at 38 the three times World Player of the Year was"getting a bit old".

"For him to be able to come back to New Zealand and lace his boots up, I just think it's good for the youngsters." "I've got to be realistic," Carter said."I've played six games in the last 18 months, and had three months of no rugby training, no contact ... it's going to be a process getting up to speed."
