Leinster hero Horgan hungry for even more glory

SHANE HORGAN is adamant that winning the Heineken Cup has not diluted his, or Leinster’s, appetite for success and that everyone in the provincial setup is desperate to replicate their Murrayfield milestone.

The man from Bellewstown in Meath has been togging out for Leinster for 11 years now and celebrated his 31st birthday two months ago, but he seems to have little intention of winding down his career just yet.

“Motivation is the easiest thing after winning a Heineken Cup. It’s simple. You get extremely greedy. It’s the case with most sports people. Sometimes there’s a perception that, with some sort of an achievement, you sit back and bask in that but I think it’s absolutely the opposite.
