Bowe happy to put travel plans on back burner

THERE are those who look at Tommy Bowe, flying up and down the wing in Croke Park last Saturday in Ireland’s win over France, jetting out to Rome to take on Italy and they turn green with envy.

Then there’s Tommy Bowe, who looks with envy at all those Irish guys around his own age (he’ll be 25 on February 22), who up sticks and head off on walkabout Down Under, not a care in the world.

The best Tommy could manage was to leave Ulster for the Ospreys.
