    I would go as far as to say that he was the best 13 ever. Certainly the best I’ve seen. That man was always a pleasure to watch play. So, from an Englishman: thanks for the magic Brian both for us in a Lions shirt and for all the amazing moments in an Ireland shirt. Even the ones against us haha.

And an amazing bloke too and his accomplishments are even more remarkable for the fact he played in and Ireland side that weren't world beaters for most of his career (as they are now). Loved watching him, even when he was scoring against us - you can't help but applaud, admire and respect the mans genius. I'd even buy him a pint!
