Irelands finest comic creation since Father Ted Hot PressI was a rugby player with a great future behind me. A 35yearold fatheroffive with an expanding waistline, who was trying to survive the bloody battlefield we call life. My son was locked in a violent turf war with a rival Love/Hate tour operator, my daughter was in love with a boy who looked like Justin Bieber, and my old dear was about to walk up the aisle with a 92yearold billionaire who thought it was still 1936.I was, like, staring down the barrel of middle age with the contentment of knowing that I was the greatest Irish rugby player who no one in Ireland had ever actually heard of. Until a chance conversation with an old Jesuit missionary made me realize that it wasnt enough.I was guided, as if by GPS, to a muddy field in lets be honest Ballybrack. And there I finally discovered my destiny to keep a struggling Seapoint team in Division 2B of the All Ireland League. Or die trying.Hides a heart of darkness beneath the layers of craic and great gas and great storytelling and human warmth. Ross OCarrollKelly is Ireland!
