DURING THE TWO bye weeks during the Six Nations, the Irish team have treated Connacht and Ulster fans by staging opening training sessions at The Sportsgrounds and Ravenhill.
It is a great opportunity for fans young and old to mingle with the players and take photos. Today’s session once again highlighted the Irish players’ willingness to mix with the fans and it is great to see.
Here are the best pictures from today’s training session.
A fan uses a selfie stick to take a snap of Sean O’Brien (but he’s standing right beside you!)
Paul O’Connell puts his amateur photography skills to use
Jack McGrath and Peter O’Mahony take a breather
Jamie Heaslip continued his fitness battle ahead of the trip to Cardiff
Ireland fan Johnny O’Kane won a signed jersey
It is like holding a peanut for Paulie
The demand for Robbie Henshaw’s signature was high as always
He was caught off-guard but Devin Toner still managed to shoot the camera a pensive look
Very impressed with the skill level in the games. Such determination.
Great story, fair play to Bohs too
Fair play to you Amanda. From Longford Town FC Supporters Club

A wheelchair is only a means of transport it’s not part of a persons body
