I think it would be possible to live a healthy, long and fulfilling life consuming ONLY products, services or events endorsed by Mr Ronan O'Gara Esq. of Cork. At the last count these included but, I suspect, are not limited to:
Adidas; Lucozade Sport; Iberian International Overseas Property; Tesco; Samsung; Tricot Marine; Newbridge Silver and AIB Platinum Visa Card.
And of coursewhen a charitable spirit grabs you; you could throw a few quid to the Asthma Society of Ireland.

Best of luck to him. After all he's a newly married man who's in the prime of his life. So what if he makes a few quid?

If companies want to throw money at him for doing shag all then far from me to begrudge him.

Yea Rog is making hay while the sun shines as if they continue to play like last Sunday evening, they will become a national joke!

Did he have his wedding sponsored too by the Fota Island Hotel? Well if he didnt he should have for all the free publicity it generated for the place!

Great on his good days awful when he's bad, but good luck to him in the World Cup!

Well done lads. I was begining to think the Cork bashing and general dislike of cork people in general was begining to quieten down. You are absolutely correct to rake up some muck about one of the best Irish rugby players of this generation on a website dedicated to the GAA. If you can't do it here, (where you can bravely remain anonymous), where can you make sneaky accusations. I'm sure you'll all cheer him on if he puts in a good performance again the French and Argentinians though. Although maybe your jealousy might prevent you form this. It must be a hard life being that ignorant and spiteful.

didnt think anyone was mentioning anything about Cork? You brought it up. Are sports people from Crok beyond the bounds of internet discussion?

In fairness, this topic is veering into territory that concerns none of us. Keep the topic to sport, the guy's private life is just that. If you want some gossip, go buy one of those magazines...

Its bebo ye are looking for id say lads, or else buy the Sunday World. What Mr O Gara does or does not do in his own time is of no concern to anyone.

BTW, I know the guy going back a while, he is a nice guy and a good laugh, but some things are not a lughing matter i.e the constant rumours about his personal life. There are several journalists around the country I can refer you to if you dont beleive me.l

Going back to the core point, his "brand" is being stretched very
thin at the moment. I thought advertisers only associated
themselves with people who were fresh in the mind of the public.

Look what overexposure did to some other local stars in years
gone by.

Are there journalists publishing untrue stories about him?

Jesus man will you cop yourself on - do you just scour message boards loooking for places where people might say something bad about someone from Cork? If he was from Dublin, Limerick or Leitrim I dont think it would change a thing.
