MUNSTER’S TEMPORARY TRAINING facility in Bruff, County Limerick was an emotional place to be today as veteran prop John Hayes togged off for what is expected to be his final session with the province.
After 14 years and 216 caps in the red of Munster, Hayes is set to take one final bow in Monday’s Rabodirect Pro12 clash against Connacht in Thomond Park.
And so hundreds of Munster fans, young and old, turned out at a special open practice this afternoon to bid a fond farewell to the man they call “The Bull”.
Here are some of the best pictures.

So proud of you Niamh! Go n-éirí go geal leat!!!
Those compression calve sleeves that she is wearing, what do they actually do? I suffer from terrible shin splints (I even get them from walking) and would get them if they actually worked…anyone know?
