Irelands Greatest Sportsman Retires

Sport
1

Its not often Ireland can lay claim to one of the true greats of World Sport, our generation were blessed to witness Brian, Roy and Robbie all wear the famous green shirt. The greatest of them all retires this weekend, and while I realise there may have been some confusion in recent weeks, months and years about when this was happening, this weekend is the de facto retirement as the curtain falls on the great mans rugby playing career.

Fare thee well BOD, it was our pleasure.

Trying way too hard, MBB. But I’m sure his retirement will be lamented in the US, Russia, China, Germany and Brazil.

Its the event of the weekend mate, and I say that knowing the amount of attention that will be on O’Moore Park come Sunday at 4PM.

As for trying too hard, that’s rich :smiley:

Did he not retire to tears a few months ago?

Is it the confession that bothers you? Some of the rugby players of o driscoll’s era were far from clean.

Good for them, they nor the drug cheat Kelly are heroes to the Irish nation like BOD is.

Poor effort.

Beautiful tribute to the big man
