Tommy Bowe as competitive as ever in game of dodgeball against Muireann O'Connell
While he may have hung up his rugby boots, Tommy Bowe is as competitive as ever as he went up against his Ireland AM co-host Muireann O'Connell in a game of dodgeball on Ireland AM earlier in the week. Members of the Republic of Ireland national dodgeball team appeared on the morning show on Monday ahead of the European Dodgeball Championships next week. The championships take place from Thursday, June 26 to Sunday, June 29, with members of the Irish squad recruiting presenters Tommy and Muireann for a quick game on Monday. While he may have hung up his rugby boots, Tommy Bowe is as competitive as ever as he went up against his Ireland AM co-host Muireann O'Connell in a game of dodgeball on Ireland AM earlier in the week. Pic: Ireland AM/ Instagram The presenting duo, who were on opposing teams, learned the art of dodgeball, with the Irish squad confirming they can hit a person anywhere in the body with the ball. Tommy is seen running into the car park to retrieve a ball, with Muireann wondering if the Monaghan man was doing a bit of cheating as she asked, 'Did we not hit him already?' The Limerick woman instantly pays for her smart comment with Tommy throwing two balls at her — with Muireann dodging the first, and getting caught the second time round as she tries to get the first ball back. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ireland AM (@irelandamvmtv) 'He's really going for you, isn't he?' one of Muireann's teammates asked as the presenter bent over in two, laughing at Tommy's head shot. 'It's not that sore, I swear!' Tommy exclaimed to the camera. The clip was shared on social media with users taking to the comments praising the presenting gang, with one writing: 'So funny! Love watching the three of them (Tommy, Muireann and Alan). Another added: 'You're not on the rugby pitch anymore.' A third commented: 'So funny can't stop laughing.' The European Dodgeball Championships 2025 take place next weekend at the UL Sport Arena, University of Limerick with teams from England, Czechia, Spain and Portugal all descending to the Treaty City for the four-day event.
