Ireland's greatest second row legends include Mick Galwey, Paul O'Connell, and Malcolm O'Kelly, all of whom captained the nation with distinction. O'Connell is widely regarded as the finest Irish lock ever, earning 108 caps and leading Munster to European glory. Galwey and O'Kelly were similarly dominant forces in Irish rugby during the 1980s-1990s and 2000s respectively, setting the standard for the position.
