Brian O'Driscoll on Sean O'Brien's Lions remarks

Ireland and Leinster legend speaks to Ger about Sean O'Brien's comments about the tour to New Zealand

[@stevebrown3685]

o brian only said what a lot of welsh fans think ..im welsh and like o brian and what he said was more or less what lots say about howley in wales ..its not wales v ireland as its portrayed

[@eltonioh]

I was thinking that myself. The amount of Welsh fans i've seen criticising Howley after Welsh games and all of a sudden O'Brien is supposed to be public enemy no.1 over there.

[@sabretooth5404]

Book Worm an arrogant prick for speaking his mind? Never mind speaking the truth

[@sidgoing1]

Sabre Tooth "should have won the series 3 nil" is speaking the truth....?

[@neilevans4352]

when was it ever Ireland v wales the hate game?

[@peterfatboy1508]

Was spot on o brien

[@raymcalister5113]

Hey guys I'm a kiwi and love your show.

[@dowdallerno1]

Fair play to obrien he called a spade a spade. He thought the lads were rubbish that's his opinion. Not everyone wants to be everyones friend like brian.

[@individualtrader7017]

Agree with o driscoll. Why couldnt he just say it to the people involved? Dont get it

[@arwalesagain]

Problem for O'Brien is regardless of who the next Lions coach is why would they pick him for the next tour after this?

[@tomhassell7985]

Telling the truth is not a 'win'?. Whatever you do, don't tell it like it is.

[@nigelclatworthy7763]

I dont think Welsh people have too many issues with what he said about Howley etc. The truth is he should have just kept his mouth shut. He has had gats for 2 Lions tours now,if he doesn't like the coaching style,stay home.

[@eekamouseman]

lions team,really .run by the same guys for YEARS.time to speak up.

[@coreyokeeffe9410]

Howley not a bad coach wen he wants to be just need a better group of players!!👍

[@neilevans4352]

attack coach, just think about that for a minute, and count the number of moves (the attack coach) has implied in the last 9 years or so, you can count them on one hand.

[@sollyharr]

Exactly right Brian !! 3-0 my ass .....

[@yaopasha]

Do you remember the time Willie John McBride, Martin Johnson Gareth Edwards JPR came out publicly a couple of months after a tour slagging off the coaches.........no nor me. Still you can't deny anyone their opinion eh?

[@daikayll1897]

Never a prophet in your own land. Truth but without names is the key or a pre truth warning for respect. But hanging a bloke,without reply opp.,to dry is just poor form. Good luck getting served at the bar after that Mr. O'brien.

[@johnnyrussell6149]

Get a job drico

[@mickser101]

He has 5 different jobs now and making some serious wedge. Newstalk are giving him a boatload for talkin shite like in this interview

[@johnnyrussell6149]

mickser101 true but would he not do a proper job and go coach someone. Willow under 12s are always looking for a dig out. At least obrien does help out tullow

[@eltonioh]

Was this done in your living room? If not then why the fuck did you watch/listen to it? This is his job now, he certainly walked the walk as a player so he has the right to air his views about the game for as long as people are willing to pay him for it.

[@johnnyrussell6149]

eltonioh wooooooo. So am I

[@eltonioh]

Yes you are but if you don't like what he says or you just don't like the guy don't tune in! I don't know why you'd go to the trouble of clicking on an O'Driscoll interview just to make a smart ass comment.

[@danocinneide1885]

No such thing as Irish "Lions" - only British Lions...and Irish Wolfhounds...

[@shanefinn4179]

British and IRISH lions is the official name. Any player's from Republic of Ireland are NOT British

[@nissanterrano2456]

Odriscoll was one of the most overrated players in history. He was very good between 2001 and 2003 but only average after that.

[@MrNickhalford]

I mean, im english and not a huge irish rugby fan but to say Drico is average is a fucking disgrace. True legend of the game and a lovelly, humble bloke. In fact...... Fuck you for suggesting hes overrated, you deluded prat.

[@DieFlabbergast]

Damn right! I'm English, too, and Brian O'Driscoll is one of the legends of the game! This pretentious prick with the Japanese car name is just trying to make himself out to be a rugby pundit! In reality, anyone who can say that knows fuck-all about rugby.

[@hayes4292]

One of the greatest centres of all time, u must have only watched rugby between those years

[@daveh7302]

Nissan terrano what shit are you smoking? O Driscoll was brilliant when they won heineken cups. Grand slam 09. Transferred his game when he lost a yard of pace turned himself into one of best defensive centres in the game. Could of played number 7 in his later years.
