| Donalbruff (talk) 14:01, 7 April 2008 (UTC)Rugby guru George Hook has some interesting things to say about Bruff RFC during his radio show on Newstalk on 4 April. Hook was talking about how the club was found among humble beginnings, and how it's first game was in a field behind the Catholic Church in Collinstown. A lot of what Hook said about Bruff RFC's history is already known. He did have some interesting things to say about the club's little known international connections. According to Hook, one such connection is Gerard O'Dwyer, who he said gravitated from Bruff GAA Club to Bruff RFC in the 1978/1989 season. O'Dwyer, said Hook moved to Finland in 1985 and was pivitol in establishing a domestic rugby league and later establishing a Finnish international rugby team. Hook said O'Dwyer was capped 44 times for Finland, and captained the team on 14 occasions. Hook also mentioned James Whelan, who he said played alongside O'Dwyer on the Finnish International Rugby Team. Hook said Whelan played for Shannon in the 1970s and was a substitute when Munster beat the All Blacks in October 1978. Donalbruff (talk) 14:01, 7 April 2008 (UTC) | |
