Record breaker Hickie not interested in reflecting on personal glory

BRIAN O’DRISCOLL overtaken in the try-scoring records by Denis Hickie at Thomond Park on Saturday, had the pleasure of informing his team-mate of the achievement.

Four tries in one game, a record held by Keith Wood and Brian Robinson, gave Hickie a 19-try haul for Ireland, one better than captain O’Driscoll.

“I hadn’t seriously thought about it until Brian congratulated me. Somehow, I may find myself doing the same to him sometime in the future.
