Reddan: Tomás will enjoy life at the Exiles

Once domiciled in London, Eoin Reddan will make his way home to Limerick this weekend to face Munster and, in all probability, Tomás O’Leary who is due to decamp to the English capital come the summer.

Such are the complexities of professional rugby players’ lives, and O’Leary picked Reddan’s brains on life across the water whilst on duty with the Irish national team that ended its Six Nations campaign with a defeat to England in, where else, but London.

“We spoke a few times, but Tomás knows his own mind and I wouldn’t be saying I gave him advice or anything,” said Reddan who was promoting new sports facilities at John Scottus National School in Dublin where his wife, Aoife, works.
