"I can remember Tony Buckley. That guy is a man mountain - like a 135 kilos - and guys trying to hold the big man up. He was completely all over the shop and punching holes in the wall. He fell off the bed and cut his eye open. "It was absolute madness."
Ferris added, "It's always going to be madness when the post-match function is in a nightclub.
"You walk up, suited and booted, and you're expecting to walk into a lovely hotel, have a nice steak, a glass of Argentinean Malbec [wine] and to be just chilling out; taking it easy.

That would possibly explain why the pair of them gave away their official IRFU gear to an elderly homeless man before they left Buenos Aires. He added:
"We walk out, two degrees in Buenos Aires and Bestie looks up, sprints across this six-lane motorway with his bag of kit. He gets to the middle and there's this old man who looks like he's been sleeping there for months; covered in sleeping bags. "Bestie just lifts the cover up, 'All right mate? Do you want some kit?"That was just Best, a man Ferris happily he admits he could talk about all day. That definitely sounds like a tour you wouldn't forget in a while, even if you wanted to.

Instead of a field or the gym, they were filmed on a Dublin street doing maul drills, while others causally tossed the ball around. It is unclear exactly where […]
