Sport and political figures line out to pay tribute to ROG

He spent a career standing behind the big guys, but last night the heavyweights lined out in Cork to give Ronan O’Gara a tribute fitting for Ireland’s highest points scorer.

Leading figures in Munster and Irish rugby were joined by other Irish sporting heroes such as fellow Corkman Roy Keane and the top figures in the worlds of politics and entertainment to honour one of the finest out-halfs the world has ever seen.

Cork developer Michael O’Flynn was the man who spearheaded the event and explained why he was so keen to do so.
