Ireland is the only one of those teams who Ireland have beaten in a rugby knockout international.

Huge honour for Conor Murray and BOD.

Conrad Smith and Kieran Read can count themselves as unlucky.

Murray? Really?

Very proud day for Sporting Limerick to have an award like that bestowed on one of their own.

Murray :laughing:

That’ll more than make up for all the World Cups they never won.

Murray did it on the biggest stage of all, a British Lions tour of New Zealand. He was sensational on that 2017 tour.

He was the dominant scrum half from 2012 to 2018. Arguably the best player on the planet in 2018.

It’s a huge honour.

A huge honour and fair play to him.

I’d have genia ahead of him. Smith and Faf De Klerk both won a world cup

Lot of strange calls in that team from my albeit limited knowledge of rugby
