You’re on the pitch to score tries, says Ulster star

BY rights Andrew Trimble should have spent the best part of yesterday evening and last night bouncing off the walls of Ireland’s Dalkey Hotel in sheer delight at his selection for Sunday’s Six Nations championship game with Wales.

There was one snag. The man he will replace on the wing at the weekend is Tommy Bowe. That’s Tommy Bowe, Ulster colleague. Tommy Bowe, close friend, and Tommy Bowe, room-mate.

Whoops. Guess rugby wasn’t mentioned after all then, Andrew?
