The winner of two Heineken Cups, three Triple Crowns and a Grand Slam, PETER STRINGER has had a stellar provincial and international career and his ultra competitive nature has him wanting more.

Having lost his grip on the Munster and Ireland number 9 jerseys, Stringer battled back (starting against Australia last June and Scotland in March) and shown that he still has a lot to offer.

His accurate passing and almost telepathic understanding with half-back partner Ronan O'Gara has helped him be an indispensable member of Irish squads stretching back to 2000.

He is Ireland's most-capped scrum half and played his part in Ireland's Grand Slam success, featuring in four games including a man-of-the-match display against Scotland. Will likely be most remembered for scoring 'that' try against Biarritz in the 2006 Heineken Cup final.
