Couldn't see any threads about this was confirmed today.

Was a legend for years finishing off many a great try particualary against England. Will be missed but at least the younger generation gets to step up.

Here's two memorable tries.

Shame after the way he played last season, ended on a high tho with the Euro

Top guy and player shoulda went to the world cup!

Absolutely devastated. A true blue legend and a top bloke in general. I'll certainly miss him on the pitch, but he should make a cracking pundit.

Very true find him to be a great pundit. Something RTE don't have a lot of.

Good player, his style of play would have suited the current trend of big blokes as wingers.

God, I'm broken up about this! One of my all time favourites. The original Ladyboys back line is fading fast. Hickie, Horgan and Dempsey are all gone. Contepomi left years ago. Sigh. Anyway, watch this:
