Anthony Foley’s funeral is currently taking place St Flannan’s Church in Killaloe Co. Clare.
Tens of thousands of people are in attendance at the funeral.
The Munster and Ireland legend tragically passed away last Sunday.
The Church was full 30 minutes before it the mass began.
Munster flags and jerseys line routes into the town and posters and messages of love for local hero Foley and support for his family hang off signposts.
This brilliant, but heartbreaking footage was captured as his coffin was carried from the church to a thunderous applause as a mark of respect to the fallen hero.
