No problem - Newtownards is just a few golf swings away from Belfast in any case.

You're right about the Grand Slam - the dates thru me but that is the answer!

I think Blackrock is the school with the most Lions players - 10, with an extra one - Conal O'Doherty 1977 - he wasn't included in the list of 10, but maybe because he was on the British Lions tour and later it became the British and Irish Lions. Still, a Lions!

no sign of a Conal O'doherty on Lions listings. Was he with Ross O'carroll Kelly

Funny, ha ha! His name was listed where I found the other 10. The answer is still the same!

Your looking at the Wikipedia list of Blackrock Rugby club not the school. 9 Lions came from the school.

P.S I think whoever edited that Wiki page was having you on with Conal O'Doherty

Sir Donald Currie was another former pupil of the RBAI who had a strong link with British/Irish tours. In 1891, when the Lions sailed to South Africa for the first time, he gave them a magnificent silver Cup to present to the South African team that put up the best performance against the tourists. At length the visitors were invincible, but the Cup was nevertheless donated to Griqualand West and in turn passed to the South African Rugby Board who put it up as the prize for the winners of their domestic provincial competitions.... The Currie Cup.
