    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).

    If you were to name an all time greatest XV he would be one of first on the sheet. Quite simply the greatest centre of all time. If you disagree with this then you clearly don't like the game.
