The slagging is underway.
Former Ireland and Munster legend Paul O’Connell was conferred with an honorary doctorate by the University of Limerick today.
The 36-year-old is currently recovering from the hamstring injury he suffered against France at the World Cup which is going to keep him out of action for anything from four-to-eight months.
Hopefully we’ll see him in action with Toulon sooner rather than later and today’s conferring should have cheered him up a little bit.
Dr. Paul O’Connell’s former teammates did take too long before taking the mickey out of the Limerick man’s new title.
First up, ex-Munster buddy Jerry Flannery.
