@Aussiephil99 LOL your telling me umaga isnt over rated? m8 even at 32 he's twice player, than any centre that has played for wallabies he'd walk into that team and captain it. and to even bring up a tackle that could of ended some1s career is just sad as feck m8, but BOD never dwelled on it he got on with his career and is one the most talented players that has ever played rugby, unquestioned commitment and heart, he is a lion. and even when he hangs up his boots will never be forgot! unlike u
@Aussiephil99 Awwwwh...does the poor little troll have nothing better to do......Get a chance to see the trouncin we gave ye last week by any chance?? Probably not..I hear being a massive dick is quite time consuming!
@robyn21100 ...actually i was raised in New Zealand and support the All Blacks......how many times have the Irish team beaten the All Blacks.....oh that's right never!!!!....and they won't if they meet in this world cup
Inspiring figure. People like jonah lomu and ma'a nonu don't inspire me because they are huge and fast but people like brian o driscoll do because they aren't that big, but what makes them amazing is there skill.

The only mistake I have ever seen from BOD was that stage with the long, badly dyed blonde hair. Other then that, it has been 12 years of utter genius - long may it continue!
he may not be the strongest or fastest player in the world but his ability, timing and his judgement does in fact make him the best rugby player who ever walked the earth
ireland for the world cup win against england 80th min corner try from dricko, the country goes mad and lomu presents him with the trophie and says "u are god brian".
@jesuscasadiegos excelent player.. excelent.. son ... i love rugby... is my live ... but a i live in latinamerica... we need learn more about the game :D
When you sum things up, Brian has achieved more than most players have, he's one of the only players in the world that for years has consecutivley appeared on the world rugby dream team. He's the only player that can play anywhere on the pitch and still make a huge difference to the team.
He will be missed when he decides to hang his boots up.
when its all said and done, he'll go down as the greatest irish player of all time. not just for the great tries etc but for all the dirty work he does forcing holding on penalties etc. thats the real reason everyone from leinster/munster/ireland or wherever really rate him as an all-timer
in fact the only negative of his rugby career was that haircut circa 2006 as seen in the italy try highlight ;)
Brian O'Driscoll epitomises all that is good in not just Irish sport but Irish people throughout. He is a symbol of the courage, pride, charm, heroism, and honesty present in Irish people. He proves that with focus, commitment, confidence and hard work, you can achieve anything. He is by far the most inspiring Irish light of this generation and i'm sure for generations to come.
His try against the Aussies when still a kid was amazing. Along with Tim Horan my favourite centre of the past 20 years. What a fuckin partnership that would have been!
Undisputed. A great player of the Modern era! I don't know why people have to be petty and try the wind up. Anyway it wouldnt work on me cos everytime people start saying "hes finished" or "not as good as he used to be" BOD comes back with a spark of real invention or class! Has to go down as one of the all time greats but being from the Northern Hemisphere wont help his case. Anyway cheers to you brian for helping me get into the great game that is rugby.
5:31 - that was 2 on 5 and BOD still managed to win! then the finish was utter perfection. everyone can take something away from his playing to improve theirs, even a prop.
@chubb123 That's probably because Ireland, even with Bod and Rog have totally failed to make an impact on the world stage, ie World Cup, and at the end of the day it's a team game.
Yes true, true, but i thats kind of based on the last World Cup, today we showed what we can do, & both BOD & ROG being outstanding again, we just need to learn to be consistent, i think we can beat anybody, just need to start cementing. We still have made an impact, club wise certainly, Leinster & Munster are top clubs & coming up is Ulster. In the end of the day, we are a very small country.
@BroomeBlocker4 first BOD made it better for himself by moving his neck which saved him from being paralyzed!2 his head was nowhere near the ground before they touched him!3 they made absolutely no attempt to land him on his back!BOD is not a cheat your reason saying that he is a cheat makes no sense, they felt a threat from BOD becausee he was the best centre in the world,umaga was prob just jealous.even the chairman of the irb said he should have been banned.umaga is a dirty cheater nofsaid
good shit here, bod definatly WAS the best centre in the world. getting older hasnt helped his game though. definatly the most all rounded centre of his time, he could do it all. pity he came from ireland and couldnt win a world cup
7:05 I think this moment sums up Brian O'Driscoll. Like a magician putting a spell on the other player before before performing a seemingly impossible dodge of a tackle.
the best and only way to enjoy a rugby video on youtube is never ever to read the comments section ive learnt. if you do you end up getting annoyed by other hemisphere gimps with massive chips on their shoulders crapping on about their players being better even when it really couldnt be further from the truth. too small and too slow? SBW? wake the fuck up you idiots. O'Driscoll best centre ever end of story. TY for posting
My GOD but he was good, the only other player tribute I've seen on here that equals O'Driscoll's feats is the one about Christian Cullen. Legends of the game.
they should invent a new game for o driscoll to play because he is making a mockery of the sport. he's too damn good. and not to forget he is apparently fat and slow!?!?!
This is a great video, it's actually easy to forget quite how much he's done when you've grown up with him. It'll be heart-wrenching when he finally retires.
i can't believe having just read that jacques fourie would outclass bod... o'driscoll is just dynamite in absolutely every part of the game... and thanks for the rare footage
@KrUmPiTz Well no other centre in the history of rugby has scored more test tries so he can't be that overated. Plus he was voted player of the decade.
@like2surf He wasn't voted player of the decade, that was some random British Journo's opinion, also, scoring tries doesn't amount to how good a player is, he's been playing for the last decade so of course he's going to have scored alot.
P.S. Conrad Smith is the best centre in World Rugby, Smith, Stanley, Jane, Dagg and Carter all tore Ireland to shreds in there 66 - 28 victory over Ireland.
O'Driscoll is the greatest outside centre of the modern Era, it's been confirmed on nearly every dream test team on all rugby sites, papers north and south. It was even mentioned on the ALL Blacks site last week. He even scored a try last week when we were down to 14 men. Sadly though age seems to be catching up with him and he doesn't have the pace he once had.
In his prime though guys like Fourie and Smith aren't even in the same league, the only player that was close to him was Umaga.
@taweraster Also congrats on the win, but we were down to 14 men for 60 mins of the game and 13 men for 10 mins(Which was entirely our fault and we deserved it). Now I'm not saying we would have won if we kept pur 15 for the match but the game was over as a contest once the red was shown, as anybody who's ever played rugby knew it would be.
@like2surf True, but we'd already put 10 points on you in the first 10 minutes so we were always going to win, but you're right, once Heaslip was gone and you were down to 7 men in the Scrum the result was always going to be a huge win, nice fightback in the second half though.
@taweraster Worlds #1 back O'Driscoll needs to play for a top national team. The thing i hate in Rugby (huge flaw) is the most talented players (backs) are completely dependent on forwards (less talented players consisting of 3 fatties, 2 lurchs, 3 inbetween) to provide ball. If forwards get dominated, backs get no service and can do nothing
Can you imagine in football.. Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi, Zidane..playing in the same team.. but getting no ball due to their defence? Thats Rugby
@Ali74 Your a retard, "ever hear the saying forwards win the game and the backs determine by how much they win by " its true, if you have a shit set pieces (Australia scrum) then you will get dominated.
@Ali74 abit disrespectfull dont yah think ???? who says back are more skillfull ? they have a different set of skills !! maybe they cant run and step, but they can tackle ruck, maul and scrummage stop being ignorant.
@taweraster smith isnt better he just seems better because he is surrounded by better players, if BOD played on the all blacks team he would fuck shit up :)
@stwdsa Hasn't had a very good record against SH teams has he? hasn't beaten the ABs, if he were so great wouldn't he be the first captain to beat the ABs for Ireland. But no, because he's not that good at all.
@TheMorsey007 Sonny bill williams? you would rather someone with no international experience than someone with over 100 international caps? plus SBW has had a number of off-field issues while o'driscoil is leader on and off the field. it would be too close to call between o'driscoill and Mortlock in their primes. I agree Fourie is a tremendous player but again o driscoill is not just a great player but a great leader.
@stwdsa sonny bill is so much better than 'BOD', and he has no international experiance because he only moved from league to union two years ago, and has played all his union rugby in france, now he's in NZ it wont be long until he gets an all balck call up, and shagging an australian super model in atoilet and getting caught pissing down an alley on a night out is hardly 'off-field issues' just makes him even more of a lad tbh.
@johnnyHM17 i've read alot comments on youtube, and your's! by far has to be the most stupid, MAKES no sense comment i have ever seen? are you like 12 by anychance? sonny bill lol jesus christ come back when you grow up and understand rugby! stupid cunt you are
@stewsterni hahaha how? everything in my comment is true, sorry your clearly a rugby expert.
Sonny Bill is an athelete, an has proven in france this season that he is a world class centre, if had been playing union from age grade he would be in the all blacks squad now, tbh i think your the one who is ill informed about rugby so you've resorted to posted comments with no value at all the the debate, i mean what is 'are you like 12 by anychance?' i cringed for you when i read that
@johnnyHM17 here m8 i cringed, when i seen your spelling, you retard, its ATHLETE, infact it would be a disgrace to call you 12, my nephew spells better! hes 4 btw, BOD was playing for lions before old sonny even played u-18, what kinda retard comes out with, hes better with no int caps?, or hes an ATHLETE, thats your theory? you are a joke m8, keep talking, i'l keep shoveling the shite your talking. fuck sake carter better centre than SBW. you sound like a GLORY HUNTER! sooooooooooooooo sad
@stewsterni your on about spelling but you just spelt MATE 'm8', and if were being petty 'fuck sake carter better centre than SBW' isn't grammatically correct and it should be 'when i SAW your spelling' not 'seen your spelling'. Just because he played for the lions before SBW played u 18's doesn't make him better, BOD is older, cant help the year he was born in MATE. and how does it make me sound like a glory hunter, it's just my opinion.
@johnnyHM17 hahaha ITS M8 YOU TWAT! you come on here, talking utter shit, did you pull sbw out of hat or somthing? you have fuck all to back up your shitty claims!, when sbw has captained the all blacks played 100 int games come back then? till then get too fuck out! go support your own country, stop being a glory hunting fag, its obvs you know fuck all about rugby! your just making yourself look stupid!, nxt thing tell me englands teams world class ! LOL
@stewsterni when the oxford dictionary starts spelling MATE,m8 then you can tell me it's spelt m8,but it clearly isn't, and your swearing and having ago,like i have said its my opinion,and you cant compare captaining ireland to captaining the all blacks,as the all blacks showed this year they are a class above everyone,how many points did they put past ireland?didn't see much of BOD's greatness in that game.i've said it before SBW is new to union,and why would i say that england are world class?
@johnnyHM17 how can you not compare being a captain of Ireland and new zealand? BOD leads by example, like any captain, 10years as the most outstanding centre of world rugby, captain of lions team, then i read your guff about a nobody whos better than BOD, o you mean game he scored a try, despite being dwn 13 men at one stage? you mean that game, go away you glory hunter, your clearly very dumb, your opinions are ridiculous, totally delusional!
@stewsterni because NZ are a league above ireland, and everyone else at the moment, and if your players didnt have to cheat to try and gain an advantage then they would get binned and sent off, fair enough he has been a fantastic player, but that was then, a new generation are coming through, stronger faster and more skillful, and how is SBW a nobody? anyone in rugby knows him, he is the most exspensive player in the world, but i guess your right, he must be a nobody, your just ignorant
@johnnyHM17 the al blacks are indeed a league above any other team but its the all blacks that are the cheaters. richie mccaw for example. he is the biggest cheater i have ever come across. hes obviously brilliant but dont dare say ireland are cheaters. and stop being such and arrogant bastard. new zeland are the best. we get it.
@thefightingmongoose4 I support wales tbh. and i agree NZ are the the biggest cheats in the world, but they have learnt how to play the ref, and they are smart enough to know when to do it and when not to. tbh im just voicing my own opinion from a fairly neautral point of view, i dont expect everyone to agree with it
@thefightingmongoose4 I am an Aussie, but would never call the All Blacks cheaters. They have been cheated a few times, Northern Hemisphere teams take the cake when it comes to cheating. England with Truck and Trailer/Martin Johnson(dirtiest player ever), France for like everything they do. Ireland just whinge a lot. South Africa was the dirtiest of the southern hemisphere teams but they have cleaned their play up a lot. Australia and New Zealand have always been fair teams
@BroomeBlocker4 mmmm spear tackling BOD in the opening moments of the Lions tour putting him out of action for the rest of it.....that's the kind of cynical cheating only Michael Schumacher understands.
@hugobear1 Not really a spear tackle, BOD made the tackle worse than it was, he was laying all over the ball with his hands in the ruck, his head was almost on the ground before they touched him. So of course when they tackled him around the legs he got lifted up in the air, they even turned him to try land him on his back, instead of falling properly, O'driscoll was trying for the penalty and ended up hurting himself. O'driscoll was the cheat, no action taken against all blacks for a reason
@BroomeBlocker4 - Listen, I was always angry with the authorities, not the Kiwi players over this one. The players did something they shouldn't, everyone does it occasionally, and the authorities should have acted. But your explanation is completely ridiculous and does a disservice to the ABS involved.
@BroomeBlocker4 ur just pissed off really that out of all the positions in the world, we actually have one player that would waltz onto any southern hemi team. were the cheats? wat bout richie Mcaw, he never gets penalised, does that make it right? we're watching this video because he drico is incredible, if u find that too sore to believe, just leave and try not to make europe think yer even bigger spastics than we already do
@TheMorsey007 since when did rugby become a 1 man sport? grow the fuck up! best centre in world rugby, has been for last 10years ffs mortlock is better than bod? hahahah fourie? sbws? you know clean fuck all about rugby, come back when ya do!
He's a titan....I always support Ireland if England aren't playing (like all the other England fans I know). O'Driscoll is the greatest sportsman in the world.... Lions and Ireland.
@IIiAJiII that's the maddest thing I've heard - I've done 2 World Cups and ALL my fellow English fans have Ireland as their second team (and always have). I go there on holiday a lot - love the place, friendly as you like. Dublin is a riot and 95% of Irish rugby fans are the best sporting fans in teh world (take a note Wales!). I've played rugby in Ireland where they are enormously hospitable and generally pretty clean players (take a note NZ and SA!!!). Footbal may be different I hate football.
@hugobear1 fucking exactly i totally agree, football fans are 90% scum and have awful sportsmanship. and i also hate football, and yes the southern hemisphere teams are complete bullies and cheaters, if they played the game fairly or were penalised once in a while they wouldn't be so high up in the world rankings.
Now to mention whos worse than them...i violently hate france, though hopefully england and ireland will dominate those bastards in the 6 nations.
@IIiAJiII I hope so desperately but Ireland look creaky and I'm ashamed to say I don't think Johnson is the right man for us. France are too erratic but have potential. Very sadly the Southern hemisphere is as dominant now as it has ever been. But we all know NZ choke in World Cups and we tend to play above ourselves so fingers crossed.
always knew he was good, but after this video... Man he is a lot better than i thought he was lol has great speed, agility and awareness, must feel awesome to be able to play rugby like that, I am a centre as well and can only sit back and admire odriscolls skill and talent!!
yes its a statement, but that doesn't stop it being a complaint. It is a complaint, just like my complaint that your a freakin plank. Go do something useful with your life instead of siiting on your fat arse posting COMPLAINTS on youtube about people who've achieved more than you could ever dream off, u sad twat.

the best and only way to enjoy a rugby video on youtube is never ever to read the comments section ive learnt. if you do you end up getting annoyed by other hemisphere gimps with massive chips on their shoulders crapping on about their players being better even when it really couldnt be further from the truth. too small and too slow? SBW? wake the fuck up you idiots. O'Driscoll best centre ever end of story. TY for posting

My GOD but he was good, the only other player tribute I've seen on here that equals O'Driscoll's feats is the one about Christian Cullen. Legends of the game.

they should invent a new game for o driscoll to play because he is making a mockery of the sport. he's too damn good. and not to forget he is apparently fat and slow!?!?!

@KrUmPiTz Well no other centre in the history of rugby has scored more test tries so he can't be that overated. Plus he was voted player of the decade.
like2surf 1 year ago
@like2surf He wasn't voted player of the decade, that was some random British Journo's opinion, also, scoring tries doesn't amount to how good a player is, he's been playing for the last decade so of course he's going to have scored alot.
P.S. Conrad Smith is the best centre in World Rugby, Smith, Stanley, Jane, Dagg and Carter all tore Ireland to shreds in there 66 - 28 victory over Ireland.
taweraster 1 year ago
O'Driscoll is the greatest outside centre of the modern Era, it's been confirmed on nearly every dream test team on all rugby sites, papers north and south. It was even mentioned on the ALL Blacks site last week. He even scored a try last week when we were down to 14 men. Sadly though age seems to be catching up with him and he doesn't have the pace he once had.
In his prime though guys like Fourie and Smith aren't even in the same league, the only player that was close to him was Umaga.

@taweraster Also congrats on the win, but we were down to 14 men for 60 mins of the game and 13 men for 10 mins(Which was entirely our fault and we deserved it). Now I'm not saying we would have won if we kept pur 15 for the match but the game was over as a contest once the red was shown, as anybody who's ever played rugby knew it would be.
like2surf 1 year ago 3
@like2surf True, but we'd already put 10 points on you in the first 10 minutes so we were always going to win, but you're right, once Heaslip was gone and you were down to 7 men in the Scrum the result was always going to be a huge win, nice fightback in the second half though.
taweraster 1 year ago
@taweraster Worlds #1 back O'Driscoll needs to play for a top national team. The thing i hate in Rugby (huge flaw) is the most talented players (backs) are completely dependent on forwards (less talented players consisting of 3 fatties, 2 lurchs, 3 inbetween) to provide ball. If forwards get dominated, backs get no service and can do nothing
Can you imagine in football.. Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi, Zidane..playing in the same team.. but getting no ball due to their defence? Thats Rugby

@TheMorsey007 Sonny bill williams? you would rather someone with no international experience than someone with over 100 international caps? plus SBW has had a number of off-field issues while o'driscoil is leader on and off the field. it would be too close to call between o'driscoill and Mortlock in their primes. I agree Fourie is a tremendous player but again o driscoill is not just a great player but a great leader.
stwdsa 1 year ago 2
@stwdsa Yeah I would choose SBW over BOD, BOD is to small and to slow. Hence why I choose who I did.
TheMorsey007 1 year ago
@stwdsa sonny bill is so much better than 'BOD', and he has no international experiance because he only moved from league to union two years ago, and has played all his union rugby in france, now he's in NZ it wont be long until he gets an all balck call up, and shagging an australian super model in atoilet and getting caught pissing down an alley on a night out is hardly 'off-field issues' just makes him even more of a lad tbh.

@stewsterni hahaha how? everything in my comment is true, sorry your clearly a rugby expert.
Sonny Bill is an athelete, an has proven in france this season that he is a world class centre, if had been playing union from age grade he would be in the all blacks squad now, tbh i think your the one who is ill informed about rugby so you've resorted to posted comments with no value at all the the debate, i mean what is 'are you like 12 by anychance?' i cringed for you when i read that
johnnyHM17 1 year ago
@johnnyHM17 here m8 i cringed, when i seen your spelling, you retard, its ATHLETE, infact it would be a disgrace to call you 12, my nephew spells better! hes 4 btw, BOD was playing for lions before old sonny even played u-18, what kinda retard comes out with, hes better with no int caps?, or hes an ATHLETE, thats your theory? you are a joke m8, keep talking, i'l keep shoveling the shite your talking. fuck sake carter better centre than SBW. you sound like a GLORY HUNTER! sooooooooooooooo sad
stewsterni 1 year ago
@stewsterni your on about spelling but you just spelt MATE 'm8', and if were being petty 'fuck sake carter better centre than SBW' isn't grammatically correct and it should be 'when i SAW your spelling' not 'seen your spelling'. Just because he played for the lions before SBW played u 18's doesn't make him better, BOD is older, cant help the year he was born in MATE. and how does it make me sound like a glory hunter, it's just my opinion.

@johnnyHM17 hahaha ITS M8 YOU TWAT! you come on here, talking utter shit, did you pull sbw out of hat or somthing? you have fuck all to back up your shitty claims!, when sbw has captained the all blacks played 100 int games come back then? till then get too fuck out! go support your own country, stop being a glory hunting fag, its obvs you know fuck all about rugby! your just making yourself look stupid!, nxt thing tell me englands teams world class !

@stewsterni when the oxford dictionary starts spelling MATE,m8 then you can tell me it's spelt m8,but it clearly isn't, and your swearing and having ago,like i have said its my opinion,and you cant compare captaining ireland to captaining the all blacks,as the all blacks showed this year they are a class above everyone,how many points did they put past ireland?didn't see much of BOD's greatness in that game.i've said it before SBW is new to union,and why would i say that england are world class?
johnnyHM17 1 year ago
@johnnyHM17 how can you not compare being a captain of Ireland and new zealand? BOD leads by example, like any captain, 10years as the most outstanding centre of world rugby, captain of lions team, then i read your guff about a nobody whos better than BOD, o you mean game he scored a try, despite being dwn 13 men at one stage? you mean that game, go away you glory hunter, your clearly very dumb, your opinions are ridiculous, totally delusional!
stewsterni 1 year ago
@stewsterni because NZ are a league above ireland, and everyone else at the moment, and if your players didnt have to cheat to try and gain an advantage then they would get binned and sent off, fair enough he has been a fantastic player, but that was then, a new generation are coming through, stronger faster and more skillful, and how is SBW a nobody? anyone in rugby knows him, he is the most exspensive player in the world, but i guess your right, he must be a nobody, your just ignorant
johnnyHM17 1 year ago
@johnnyHM17 the al blacks are indeed a league above any other team but its the all blacks that are the cheaters. richie mccaw for example. he is the biggest cheater i have ever come across. hes obviously brilliant but dont dare say ireland are cheaters. and stop being such and arrogant bastard. new zeland are the best. we get it.

johnnyHM17 1 year ago
@thefightingmongoose4 I am an Aussie, but would never call the All Blacks cheaters. They have been cheated a few times, Northern Hemisphere teams take the cake when it comes to cheating. England with Truck and Trailer/Martin Johnson(dirtiest player ever), France for like everything they do. Ireland just whinge a lot. South Africa was the dirtiest of the southern hemisphere teams but they have cleaned their play up a lot. Australia and New Zealand have always been fair teams

@BroomeBlocker4 mmmm spear tackling BOD in the opening moments of the Lions tour putting him out of action for the rest of it.....that's the kind of cynical cheating only Michael Schumacher understands.
hugobear1 1 year ago
@hugobear1 Not really a spear tackle, BOD made the tackle worse than it was, he was laying all over the ball with his hands in the ruck, his head was almost on the ground before they touched him. So of course when they tackled him around the legs he got lifted up in the air, they even turned him to try land him on his back, instead of falling properly, O'driscoll was trying for the penalty and ended up hurting himself. O'driscoll was the cheat, no action taken against all blacks for a reason

@BroomeBlocker4 - Listen, I was always angry with the authorities, not the Kiwi players over this one. The players did something they shouldn't, everyone does it occasionally, and the authorities should have acted. But your explanation is completely ridiculous and does a disservice to the ABS involved.

@IIiAJiII that's the maddest thing I've heard - I've done 2 World Cups and ALL my fellow English fans have Ireland as their second team (and always have). I go there on holiday a lot - love the place, friendly as you like. Dublin is a riot and 95% of Irish rugby fans are the best sporting fans in teh world (take a note Wales!). I've played rugby in Ireland where they are enormously hospitable and generally pretty clean players (take a note NZ and SA!!!). Footbal may be different I hate football.
hugobear1 1 year ago
@hugobear1 fucking exactly i totally agree, football fans are 90% scum and have awful sportsmanship. and i also hate football, and yes the southern hemisphere teams are complete bullies and cheaters, if they played the game fairly or were penalised once in a while they wouldn't be so high up in the world rankings.
Now to mention whos worse than them...i violently hate france, though hopefully england and ireland will dominate those bastards in the 6 nations.

@IIiAJiII I hope so desperately but Ireland look creaky and I'm ashamed to say I don't think Johnson is the right man for us. France are too erratic but have potential. Very sadly the Southern hemisphere is as dominant now as it has ever been. But we all know NZ choke in World Cups and we tend to play above ourselves so fingers crossed.
