Three different codes, three different countries on three different days.

It was a crazy weekend for the O'Sullivan family from Kiltale in Co. Meath with brothers Hugh, Mark and Cillian seeing action for the Ireland U20 rugby team, Meath hurlers and Meath footballers respectively.

Youngest brother Hughie came on as a replacement for the Ireland U20 rugby team in their 24-34 Six Nations defeat to France on Friday night in Bordeaux, while oldest sibling Mark was also sprung from the bench for the Meath hurlers in their 1-24 to 1-14 Allianz League Division 2A victory over London in Ruislip the following day.

And yesterday it was the turn of Cillian to strut his stuff at full forward for the Meath footballers in their impressive 0-21 to 0-7 Allianz League Division 2 win over Clare in Navan. 

If there was an accolade for Ireland's most sporting family, the O'Sullivan's would surely be in the running!
