O’Driscoll hoping for extended home run

WHEN Mick O’Driscoll re-signed for Munster recently after two years with Perpignan, some fans suggested it was a detrimental step for the province.

“He’s over 30, they should be looking at younger guys,” one supporter declared.

O’Driscoll is just 26, and ready to prove it at Thomond Park this evening (6.30) when Munster meet Northampton in a pre-season friendly.
