Even now, the tackle heard around the world on Kiwi star winger Stu Wilson still sends a shudder down the spine thanks to the constant reminders of the famous Guinness ad. From Abbeyfeale, Co Limerick, he played with UCG and Connacht before his Munster stint and also won three caps for Ireland. Won four Munster Senior Cups with Garryowen before finishing his playing days in junior rugby at Roscrea. Taught history and geography in the Roscrea vocational school, as well as coaching their teams. |
