News: A testimonial dinner for former UCC, Blackrock, Leinster, Munster, Saracens, Ireland and Lions prop Paul Wallace takes place tomorrow night in the Burlington Hotel, Dublin.

Ray McLoughlin is the guest speaker, Fergus Slattery is master of ceremonies and former French and Australian legends Phillipe Sella and Michael Lynagh will also attend.

Wallace made his international debut against Japan in 1995 and went on to win 47 caps. He played a central role in the Lions 2-1 Test series victory in South Africa in 1997, but his career was cut short by the legacy of a serious leg injury in 2001.

Tickets are still available at €160 per person or €1,600 for a table of 10. A percentage of the proceeds will go to the Irish Cancer Society. Further information from Sinead Ryan of Joanne Byrne at 01-6761062.
