Just when Ireland fans thought they were over the sheer sadness of it all, one of the country’s TV channels produced this evocative Paul O’Connell tribute.
The kind, grateful, stirring words for the Ireland captain have flowed all week, ever since his World Cup was cruelly ended by injury.
TV3 are back on the air with Rugby World Cup coverage and they felt it was only right to continue the tributes with this superb video.
Narrated by Keith Wood – an Irish legend in his own right – it starts with the knife-twist and ends on a note of giddy hope.
