Rugby: Clohessy - I’m lucky to be alive

Ireland prop Peter Clohessy said today he is lucky to be alive after being burned in an explosion at his home on Monday evening.

Clohessy, 36, who played his final international for Ireland at the Stade de France on Saturday, will see a plastic surgeon in Galway tomorrow having received burns to his arm and face when a garden bonfire he was tending at his Limerick home caused an explosion.
