Sean Kevin O'Brien (born 14 February 1987) is an Irish professional rugby union player from Carlow, Ireland. He plays provincial rugby for Leinster and club rugby for UCD. He is known for his barging runs and ball carrying, with the IRB's Rugby News Service describing him as 'a rampaging ball of destruction He is also known for his speed, counter rucking, and defensive tackling. He was selected to play for the British and Irish Lions for their 2013 tour to Australia. ==Leinster== O’Brien made his Leinster debut against Cardiff Blues in September 2008 in the Celtic League. He made his Heineken Cup debut against Castres Olympique in December 2008. He did not feature for Leinster in the 2009 Heineken Cup Final, but evidence of O’Brien’s emergence as one of the most exciting young back-row forwards in Europe came in the form of strong interest from France before Christmas of 2010. The Irish Rugby Football Union, keen to ensure they did not lose "The Tullow Tank", moved quickly and O’Brien agreed a new three-year deal with Leinster the following January. O'Brien was in outstanding form for Leinster during the pool stages of the 2010–11 Heineken Cup, and he was an integral part of the team that beat Northampton Saints to win the 2011 Heineken Cup Final. In January 2014, O'Brien signed a new two-year deal with Leinster. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seán O'Brien (rugby player)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
