WATCH: Connacht star wasn’t prepared for this gas interview with a 12-year-old girl

Taking no prisoners

SportsJOE

Eoin McKeon had no idea what he was in for when he sat down for this interview.

Ahead of the province’s PRO12 clash against Zebre on Friday, Connacht rugby have shared a fantastic interview with the forward conducted by 12-year-old Holly.

From the very first question, McKeon knew this wouldn’t be your average interview. Holly immediately quizzed him about the origins of his nickname which prompted the classic, ‘Oh God’ response.  McKeon gave a vague reason for the moniker, something about a dodgy haircut he got in Thailand, but swiftly admitted he couldn’t say some of the other reasons behind the name on camera.

This really set the tone for the rest of the interview, which you can see in full below.
