Everyone is well aware that last month Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt battled through appendicitis to plot Ireland's win over Australia. After the game, Schmidt had to have his appendix removed and a besotted nation rushed to wish him a speedy recovery. So typically according to Irish Examiner scribe John Fogarty, Schmidt responded:
Joe Schmidt has been handwriting responses to "get well soon" letters sent to him following his recent operation. Classy touch.

We feel as if it's our duty to point out that those letters will feature impeccable grammar and will go through a rigorous editing process.
