Both head coaches, one captain and a host of other players will be saying farewell to Test rugby on Friday when New Zealand and Wales meet in the third-place playoff at the World Cup.
New Zealand boss Steve Hansen is stepping down after 16 years with the side, eight as an assistant under Graham Henry and eight as head coach, after the game at Tokyo Stadium.
Warren Gatland, meanwhile, is leaving the Wales job after 12 years in charge to take over at his hometown club, the Waikato Chiefs in New Zealand.
Both men will walk away with incredible coaching credentials.

Hansen has been involved with an All Blacks side that has set the bar for professional teams over the last 15 years and had an unparalleled run of success, while Gatland steered Wales to four Six Nations titles and brought greater depth and playing standards to the side.
In addition, All Blacks captain Kieran Read and several other veterans, Ben Smith, Ryan Crotty and Sonny Bill Williams, are likely to be pulling on the jersey for the final time.
Both sides will also be keen to put the disappointment of losing last weekend behind them, with the All Blacks missing out on the chance of a third successive title and Wales yet to reach their first final.
Wales have added motivation as they have not beaten the All Blacks since 1953, a run of 30 matches.
