Bowe seeks awards double
The award is one of six which will be announced at the Bord Gáis Energy IRUPA Rugby Awards on Wednesday, May 6 at Dublin’s Burlington Hotel. These are the only awards voted for by the players themselves, and votes are cast from across all four provinces.
Irish Lions dominate the nominations, and amongst the favourites to land the coveted Bord Gáis Energy IRUPA Players’ Player of the Year are 2008 winner Tommy Bowe of the Ospreys, Ulster flanker Stephen Ferris, and Grand Slam captain Brian O’Driscoll of Leinster.
