Jay Fluck, Brown Rugby Legend, Passes at 82

Three of Ireland’s most decorated rugby players—Peter O’Mahony, Cian Healy, and Conor Murray—have retired from international rugby after a final match against Italy. Their retirements follow that of former captain Johnny Sexton, who initially moved into the corporate world before returning to rugby as a coach for the Irish national team and the British & Irish Lions. The transitions of these players highlight varied post-retirement paths, from private life and family to potential broadcasting careers and coaching. Their departures mark the end of an era for Irish rugby, while also illustrating how former players continue to influence the sport in new roles.
