Flannery inspired Irish performance: O'Driscoll

He may not have played a part on the pitch, but Jerry Flannery was part of the inspiration for Ireland’s 15-6 victory over the Wallabies at Eden Park yesterday.

Flannery, whose career has been dogged by injury, was ruled out of the remainder of the World Cup after tearing his calf muscle in training and will be leaving New Zealand in the coming days.
