Conor McGregor would have made a fine rugby centre in his day.
Fast hands, strong physique and the brain to spot opportunities before any of his opponents would made have him a very tough cookie if he had decided to pursue the oval ball instead of life inside the Octagon.
We’re sure the Dubliner is exactly like the rest of this week as he’s getting ready to shout his lungs out in our opening game of the Rugby World Cup next weekend against Canada.
Joe Schmidt’s side won’t lack for motivation we’re sure, but in case they do ‘The Notorious’, and Cian Healy, have given the squad a little extra boost as revealed by Jamie Heaslip tonight.
Serious squad gift by church and Conor McGregor handed out to the squad!
