  • Tadhg Furlong on Ireland’s Summer Tour, Injuries & Leadership Ahead of the New Nations Championship
    2026/06/25

    “I Just Want to Play Rugby”


    Tadhg Furlong sits down with Virgin Media Sport’s Stuart McAvoy ahead of Ireland’s Nations Championship campaign, beginning July 4th.


    Fresh off another title-winning season with Leinster, Furlong opens up on the emotional end to the campaign, the impact of Leo Cullen’s upcoming departure, and what it means to be one of the senior leaders in the Ireland squad.


    He also talks about:

    🏉 Managing injuries and staying fit into his 30s

    🏉 The changing demands of modern rugby

    🏉 Ireland’s summer tour and the challenge of Australia and New Zealand

    🏉 The next generation stepping up in camp

    🏉 Why his focus has never been on flashy moments, but on doing the hard work right


    Furlong also reflects on his own standards, what “playing your best” really means, and why, after 86 caps, his love for the game is as strong as ever.
