Fearless Willie Duggan: The hardest man I played with

Hearing about the sudden passing of a former team-mate is always shocking. When the first of many texts started to arrive early yesterday, I was stunned. 

Willie Duggan, just like Moss Keane before him, was always indestructible in my eyes. Now he too is gone.

It is hard to fathom that the two totemic figures from Ireland’s Triple Crown and Five Nations championship winning pack of 1982 are no longer with us.
