The journey ends on Saturday.
Unless there is an astonishing volte-face, Paul O’Connell is finishing up with Munster on Saturday.
The Ireland captain, who today was heavily linked to a Toulon move, is set to line out for the province for the last time in the Guinness PRO12 final against Glasgow Warriors at Kingspan Stadium.
To mark the occasion, TG4 and Sky Sports, in particular, have compiled videos that pay tribute to the big man.
Just look at him, claiming line-outs like a boss.
The TG4 piece encompasses the whole game, which it will air from 6:00pm on Saturday, but there is more than one lingering look at O’Connell.
