Friday Morning: O'Gara's Backing Athy’s Joey Carbery To Put His Six Nations Disappointment Behind Him

Manchester City came from 2-0 down to beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-2 in the Premier League at the Etihad Stadium last night.

RUGBY

Former Munster and Ireland out half Ronan O'Gara is backing Athy’s Joey Carbery to put his Six Nations disappointment behind him.

The Munster number 10 was omitted from Andy Farrell's Ireland squad yesterday.

Farrell instead selected Johnny Sexton, Ross Byrne and Jack Crowley as his three out-halves.

Speaking to 'OTB AM', La Rochelle coach O'Gara feels playing with freedom may help Carbery.
