How old is too old?
Mils Muliaina has been a loyal and reliable servant of New Zealand rugby. As a fullback he has managed the rare feat of excelling as an attacking menace while providing the kind of solidity and positional nous at the back that lets fans - and coaches - breathe easy.
He has earned his place as a favourite of the coaching panel with consistently excellent performances since making his debut as a 22-year-old against England in 2003.
