O’Connell not cut out for waterboy role

Injured Munster captain Paul O'Connell has revealed that he has acted as waterboy during a recent training camp whilst recovering from injury – a role he is anxious to abandon.

“I found it hard watching the lads training, especially when we were in La Manga and the lads were training really hard and I was basically a waterboy for the week,” the tough-tackling Limerickman said at the recent launch of the Heineken Cup competition.
