When is Ronan O’Gara going to quit the messing and run for president?
The Munster and Ireland legend is as frank and uncompromising off the pitch as he was on it.
He lives by a set of rules that some would see as old-school but he just calls life. If he sees something that rankles him, he’ll say it.
That means that he has to be able to take a bit of stick in return but O’Gara would not have it any other way.
And so, when O’Gara picked up his phone and spotted Dublin footballer Bernard Brogan sharing selfies and group pictures during a stag weekend, he was quick off the mark.
Good crew building for the Irish stag! pic.twitter.com/EsStWiH9Ys

You only got one shot. We’re choosing to believe it was an intentional 8 Mile reference.
O’Gara has a point. Save the blurry memories and group hugs for yourself.
No phones. No selfies. Just go out and have a blast.
‘You’ve gotta dance like there’s nobody watching,
‘Love like you’ll never be hurt,
‘Sing like there’s nobody listening,
‘And live like it’s heaven on earth.’
William W. Purkey had it bang on.
There were no selfies at his stag either.
