THE BLISTERING RISE of number eight Jack O’Donoghue has been a major positive in Munster’s season.
The Waterford man, who captained Ireland under 20s in last summer’s Junior World Championship, has impressed in each of his seven senior appearances for his native province. And his three tries from two starts are evidence of his handy knack for a line-break and the try-line.
O’Donoghue has also been named captain of the A team on a number of occasions and appears to be on the fast track for a long-term leadership role in the senior squad.
In this video published by Munster today, the 21-year-old describes his regular day around the UL campus that Munster call home. He also reveals the Munster icon who he models his game on and his goals for the future.
With Peter O’Mahony and Tommy O’Donnell hoping to be away on international duty in the first half of next season, 2015 could yet be an even bigger year for O’Donoghue.
