Former British Lions hooker, Karl Mullen, the only man to lead Ireland to their only ever shock Triple Crown & Grand Slam victory sixty years ago in 1948, pictured here (centre) with fellow surviving members of that legendary team: Michael O'Flanagan, Paddy Reid, Jack Kyle, Karl Mullen, Jim McCarthy, Bertie O'Hanlon and Jimmy Nelson.

Well done Karl.
