I'm looking forward to taking to the field one last time for London Irish at Madejski Stadium this weekend alongside some of those friends and hoping for a victorious send-off for everyone who is moving on.
There’s too many highlights to remember, but it’s more about the guys who you’ve spent time with over the years and who have become your closest friends. Whatever happens, London Irish will always be a part of my life.
I had the first operation at 16 and the specialist back in Ireland said that if I played until 27-28, I’d have had a fantastic career. I’m 33 now and the fact that I’ll be playing on Saturday goes to show how I’ve been so well looked after at London Irish by physios and strength and conditioning coaches...
Kieran has been one of London Irish's greatest servants. A true professional and we thank him for his outstanding dedication and commitment to the Club.

Mike has played at the top level and is highly respected. He has done a great job whilst coaching at London Irish and we are looking forward to working with him on this South Africa tour
It has been a difficult decision and I will be sad to leave London Irish ... I want to say a huge thanks to all the players and coaches I have worked with since 2004. Toby Booth in particular deserves massive credit for what and how he has taught me. Thanks also to the supporters who have been brilliant...
He’s got to forget all that and move. He was a big fish at London Irish whereas he’ll just be a player here. He’ll have to prove himself and that’ll bring the best out of him.
London Irish missed a kick in the last play in our first game and [Juan Martin] Hernandez missed a dropped goal in the Racing Metro game here. Those could as easily have been two losses as two wins. But they gave us the confidence to push on.
Shane is an exceptional player with a great deal of skill and we are a team that wants to attack ... He's a game-breaking ball player and he's matured as a game controller. His contribution during his first spell with London Irish was massive and we're looking forward to welcoming him back into the fold...
As we're a team that wants to attack, Shane is a great player to partner Tomás O'Leary. His contribution during his first spell with London Irish was massive and I know he will contribute the same when he joins us again. We're looking forward to welcoming him back into the fold.
We’ve won our last few Aviva Premiership games at Adams Park against London Irish and Gloucester and there’s no doubt in my mind that the noise and support the fans made in those matches, which were both incredibly tight, made a massive difference. We need everyone again for one last push in what’s a hu...

London Irish has some fantastic young and talented backs who have greatly benefited from training and competing alongside him. We look forward to watching those guys in action for the rest of this and next season and to announcing Shontayne's replacement very shortly.
We'd like to thank Shontayne for his time with London Irish. We wish him the very best of luck for his future career with Montpellier
We need a good result and have plenty of incentive to perform against a dangerous London Irish team who I fully expect to play without pressure and with real ambition
In London Irish's old clubhouse, in Sunbury, portraits of some of the club's great players hang
When Shane Geraghty left London Irish in 2009, his picture was symbolically removed from the wall, such was the depth of feeling about his departure.
Delon is one of many players who has committed over ten years’ service to this club. I wish him and his family the best in the future and thank him for his considerable involvement in London Irish’s success in recent times. We are sad to see him leave but wish him the very best of luck at Toulon. Person...
