Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Brian O'Driscoll, Ireland centre (on dealing with the emotion leading into his final match):

"I think I tried to channel the emotions into the performance. I played fair today and you can't allow the occasion to get the better of you. I think you have to try and make sure that you're able to be the cog in the wheel for the team, and that's what I tried to do. Emotions come afterwards and they did. There's some great emotions in the dressing room and I'm sure they'll be a few tears, whether it be later on with multiple beers on board, probably. It's a lovely way to be able to finish out in this jersey that I've had so much fun in over the last 15 years. I feel very grateful to be able to finish to be able to go out on this real high."
