Before entering business, O’Reilly played rugby for Ireland and the Lions and could have been ‘one of the world’s greats’

Was chatting about Tony to a friend just  yesterday. He related a classical story  O’Reilly told about himself. In later years, well removed from the glory days, Tony was at some club game when an old boy accosted him. ‘Didn’t you used to be Tony O’Reilly’, he asked. Nice chuckle.
