Brian O'Driscoll led Ireland to the Triple Crown last weekend
|
Ireland captain Brian O'Driscoll has been voted RBS Six Nations player of the championship after leading his team to the Triple Crown.
Fans were asked by the tournament's official website to select their dream team each weekend, and over 10,000 votes were cast for O'Driscoll.
The Irish skipper described the award as a great honour.
"I would like to thank the fans, but it is as much a vote for my team-mates as it is for me," said O'Driscoll.
"This award caps a tremendous RBS Six Nations for Ireland. Whilst we missed out on the title only on points difference, to pick up the Triple Crown at Twickenham was very special."
