6. Street Footballers

On the off chance any of you missed all my posts about it, here's the two illustrations I did for the last two Ireland match programme covers, minus all the logos and text and whatnot. Tried to throw a few nods to the LOI in there where I could! pic.twitter.com/0J5rvj2GUD

Previous home crowds were 5,000 & 12,000. They're close to 20,000 sell-outs for most games now.

10. A glowing tribute to Darran O’Sullivan

Started with this man, finished with him. Struck pure fear in everyone with his blistering pace. A leader as he showed at a young age in 09 as Kerry captain. He was a great passer finisher and kicker, but his will to win and that bit of a dog in him is what I loved most. #legend pic.twitter.com/hWmme1AskN
