One of the best players to ever pick up the oval ball, Brian O'Driscoll's first Guinness Six Nations came in the tournament's inception as a six-team tournament. Twenty years on, he remains one of the best voices in rugby punditry.
Ireland kick off their campaign this Saturday against Scotland. With five potential debutants in the squad, Johnny Sexton wearing the armband and a new Head Coach in Andy Farrell, it's an exciting new era as Ireland look to once again shake off a disappointing World Cup campaign.
Grand Slam-winning captain O'Driscoll sat down with SportsJOE to talk about his Guinness Six Nations memories, how much Ireland will miss Rob Kearney and who he'd rather share a room with; Trimby or Fla. You can check it out in the video below:
