Pic: Mike McCarthy tweets proof that Devin Toner is just far too tall sometimes

Devin Toner’s towering height makes him an asset in the line-out, but it isn’t ideal in every situation.

The entire Irish rugby team must be feeling 6′ 10″ after claiming the Six Nations trophy in spectacular fashion on Saturday. However, Devin Toner actually is that tall, and as Mike McCarthy pointed out on Twitter, it’s not all that it’s cracked up to be.

McCarthy posted a photo of his Leinster and Ireland team-mate in the Irish team’s hotel this morning and it appears that roof just ain’t high enough for the second row.

Ah well, it could be worse, Devin.
