For those who missed it…

Anthony Foley: Munsterman wil be shown again on RTÉ on Monday October 30, due to power outages across the country during its original airing on Monday this week.

Storm Ophelia wreaked havoc across the country with southern and western areas vastly affected by the high winds which resulted in hundreds of thousands of people losing power.

RTÉ have taken this into account and will show the documentary again so that anyone who missed out the first time will have a chance to watch the story of Munster rugby through the life of the late Anthony Foley.

The poignant documentary will be aired on the Bank Holiday Monday at 10.35pm on RTÉ One, but you can also check it out online on the RTÉ Player.

Featuring contributions from current players like Simon Zebo and Conor Murray to his former teammates Ronan O’Gara, Jerry Flannery and Paul O’Connell to Foley’s sisters Orla and Rosie, the documentary provides some glowing memories of Foley’s great days with Munster as well as the harrowing circumstances surrounding his untimely death.

It was lauded when it was aired on Monday, so make sure not to miss it at the end of the month.
