JONATHAN SEXTON WAS pictured after training with a foam roller but it caught Jon Walters off guard:

Thought he was eating Pringles in that picture at first glance

Basketball commentator Tim McCarthy has joined the Wexford football backroom team. That doesn’t bother Cathal McWeeney though, he already has his eyes on Rio:

Please let Timmy be covering the Olympics, I’ve waited 4 years!!!#shakenbake

Ciarán Burke made it clear who his favourite Italian footballer is:

Take someone like Cassano, He says he’s slept with 700 women yet doesn’t get picked for the Italian team. Could he be happy with that? I wouldn’t be – Andrea Pirlo

Kilkenny might still be winning All-Irelands but Derek delaney is finding the pre-season retirements difficult to stomach:

We love Septembers here in Kilkenny but really beginning to dislike Januarys

Waterford fan James Darcy felt mixed emotions after hearing the news:

As a Waterford man – thank god! As a hurling fan I’m devastated. Legend of the game.

It seems it was love at first, eh, grab for james’ parents after Ryan Wilson’s citing incident reminded him of a family tale.

That’s how my parents met

Cardinals fan Jim Culleton couldn’t contain his excitement after watching his side come out on top in a thrilling contest with the Packers:

Season ticket holder at the Cardinals for the last 8 yrs. I thought I had seen it all until last Saturday night took me 2 days to get home from that game. What a buzz. Have to say Aaron Rodgers is unreal to pull off 2 hail Mary’s one from 4th and 20 back to back left me feeling sick until Larry finished it off. The coin flip then not flipping this game had it all..Its going to be tough in Carolina but I just have a feeling this could be out year now.

After Sam Burgess came to the rescue at a seafood eating contest, Joseph C. Halpin couldn’t let Gordon D’Arcy’s critical column inches of the English bruiser lie:

Gordon Darcy will probably say he did it wrong.

Dylan Hartley’s disciplinary issues are bound to boil over if he is made England captain, according to David:

Oh watching Hartley implode as captain is going to be just epic entertainment !!!

Clare All-Ireland winning captain Donnellan hit with cruciate injury setback

Connacht welcome Robbie Henshaw back to their starting XV
