The Irish Independent's David Kelly talks to the inform Ronan O'Gara about his Six Nations aspirations.
"It would be trite to suggest that Ronan O'Gara is raging against the dying of the light. He isn't.
For one thing, he will soon ring up his employers and start gently haranguing them for a contract extension beyond 2013.
Secondly, he is no longer raging. Still seething quietly about Ireland's defeat to Wales in the World Cup, perhaps, but certainly not raging.
"Contrary to what certain people think, that I'm difficult if I'm left out of the starting team, that's not true," smiles the man who, technically, still holds the Irish jersey after starting that game in Wellington.
"I would like to think that if my team-mates came in here I'd be seen as the ultimate team man in terms of how I conduct myself. That is so important, that you have their respect, irrespective of what the public think.”
