THERE WAS AN Irish sporting legend on The Late Late Show last night as Paul O’Connell joined Ryan Tubridy.
The former Ireland and Munster rugby captain, who retired earlier this year, gave a wide-ranging interview which touched on his early beginnings and the short-lived spell at Toulon at the end of his professional career.
Limerick native O’Connell also revealed that only former team-mate Alan Quinlan used to call him the nickname Psycho.

And here’s a story which shows he had a winning mentality even as a child.

Interesting bringing David power back into the fold after his all Ireland minor success a few years back
Sooner tipperary one in a row than waiting decades
@43 major trophies: Where would Galway be if Barry Kelly didnt award them 18 frees in the semi final? 10 alone in the second half to get them over the line, Tipp are looking forward to getting back to the top in 2018
If Tipp win the all Ireland next year they may just win it again in 2020.
No job for Councillor Maurice Hickey?
”Tis a slight on Kildicken.
Surprised Richard O’Brien didn’t get a call up.
