BRIAN O’DRISCOLL AND Leo Cullen are unsurprisingly receiving numerous plaudits as they prepare to retire from rugby.

Remarkably, as well as playing together for many years at Leinster, the duo were also on the same team at schools’ rugby level.

Hence, Blackrock College, in conjunction with TG4, have filmed this tribute to two of their most famous past pupils.

‘I won’t go through the physical pain of winter, I’ll inflict the pain from now on’ — Leo Cullen>

Brian O’Driscoll: ‘I am a big believer that the lows happen for a reason’>
