As Steve Diamond’s first signing in the summer of 2011 after making his return to Sale Sharks, Tony arrived with a big reputation – and a stature to match.

The man they call ‘Mushy’ is one of the heaviest players in the professional game and as you would expect of a man of his standing, is a destructive scrummager and a real danger when he gets momentum in the loose.

Signed on a three-year contract from Munster, who he joined from Connacht in 2005, Tony made his Ireland debut in 2007 and has been in and around the international squad ever since.

He made 13 appearances for the Sharks in his debut season.
