THE DYNAMIC centre made a try-scoring return in the opening match of the 2009 RBS Six Nations against France, after being out for a year with a broken arm sustained against Italy in the 2008 Six Nations.
Having made his debut as a replacement against Romania at the 1999 Rugby World Cup, it was a welcome return for the former Clongowes Wood College pupil. D’Arcy reclaimed his centre spot alongside Brian O’Driscoll for the remainder of the 2009 RBS Six Nations and helped Ireland to a historic Grand Slam.
A few weeks later D’Arcy added to his silverware with a Heineken Cup winners medal for Leinster. D’Arcy was then called up to the B&I Lions after another eye catching display for The Barbarians against England.
