Bowe to retire at the end of the season
- 886
Ireland and Ulster wing Tommy Bowe has announced that he will call time on his rugby career at the end of the season.
The 69-times capped veteran took to Twitter last night to announce that he will be retiring when the current season comes to a close.
Monaghan-born Bowe has been struggling with injury in recent weeks and is unlikely to add to his international appearances in the upcoming Six Nations.
The two-time British & Irish Lion scored 30 tries for Ireland and his crucial score against Wales in Cardiff back in 2009 was vital in a famous Grand Slam success.
I’ve spent most of my career in Belfast,
At first George said I wasn’t very fast,
I eventually found my gears,
Had some incredible years,
But it’s time to tell you - this is my last! pic.twitter.com/KZa8Rwk4G1
