A Pop-Up Statue Honouring Paul O'Connell Was Unveiled In Cardiff Today

We've seen more of Paul O'Connell on an ipad than we have the match thus far. Paddy Power's energetic marketing department ensured that a statue of the great man would adorn the city of Cardiff.

The statue is engraved with the message 'Putting the fear of God into opponents since 2002'. Sadly, this is written in English rather than the more dignified Latin.

Placed in Cardiff today. Bravo @paddypower pic.twitter.com/pyml2vnHyK
