    Hello! We have realised Ireland got a series win in Aus in the amateur era, apologies! Blame wiki… 😢

    The reason he only played 4 games in 4 years at Leinster was injury. It was a great pity but at some point you have to call it and I know he was looking at quitting rugby at that point for a normal job. To get to where he is now should be a lesson to everyone. There were other players that I wish Leinster had never let go like Andrew Conway and Joey Carbery but at least Munster have done well out of it.

    Apologies, but he was on the Second Irish side to win a test series in Australia. Ireland previously won test series in Australia 2-0 in 1979. Tadhg is a phenomenal player at the peak of his powers. Leinster’s loss is Munster’s gain.

  • @Mojo-IRE
    @Mojo-IRE Před 4 měsíci +3

    Certainly the best defender in the world post 2019. I would say it was Maro before that but Beirne's been incredible. Not just jackals but maul defence and pouncing on a loose ball or even the odd interception. To my province Munster and obv Ireland in most big games he's worth at least 5 points or more for moments where he's saved his team. That's all before we even mention how good he often is in attack.

    I know it's still a feat, but I'd be inclined to say one GS in his two championship wins.
    There's no trophy for the Triple Crown, and since the 6N started GS's are much more frequent.

    I don't think it's too much of an exaggeration to call him the best rugby player in the world (however that is defined.) He has all the skills. He's from Eadestown, Naas, Ireland and started his rugby playing with Naas RFC.
