Irish rugby stars line out for seasonal sketches

IRISH rugby star Ronan O’Gara demonstrates a capacity for tenderness while his teammate Donncha O’Callaghan likes to bring things to a head.

Those are among the findings of graphologist Denis Sexton who today analyses the sketches and doodles of members of the Ireland rugby team to find out what they say about the players.

The Irish stars generously participated in this year’s Irish Examiner’s Christmas wrapper initiative in aid of St Vincent de Paul. The wrapping paper showcasing the Irish players’ doodles and sketches will come free with tomorrow’s newspaper.
