Tommy O'Donnell must have left a serious impression on the readers of L'equipe with the few minutes he played against Scotland in this year's Six Nations. The Munster flanker made the French paper's team of the tournament and he made it in the second row:
Yes, yes ok we're sure they meant Paul O'Connell. Some interesting selections there though and it's nice to see just how much Irish representation there is. Contrast that with the Sunday Times:
Ireland according to Stephen Jones were worthy of one more player in the fifteen than Scotland while Stuart Barnes has eight England players to Ireland's four. We are well aware that it's a waste of time to get upset about slights such as this considering just how often they happen but for the sake of clarity could not one of the fine Irish writers for the Times have selected their team for the Irish edition?
