In return, members of the Society offered soil from Gallaher’s birthplace in Ramelton to the visiting delegation.

This Ramelton soil will be placed at Eden Park, New Zealand’s national rugby stadium, creating a lasting bond between Gallaher’s hometown and the country where he made rugby history. The ceremony not only honoured Gallaher’s remarkable life but also strengthened the enduring friendship between both communities.

The event was covered by several media outlets including RTE News - read their report here'
