ULTAN Dillane played a big part as Connacht beat Leinster to claim their first Rabodirect Pro 12 crown.
The Tralee man’s performance came in for some praise on Twitter. Now he has the tour of South Africa with Ireland to look forward to, it should be a great summer for the forward.
Here’s what people were saying about him on Twitter yesterday…

Ultan Dillane leaves two players trailing in his wake. Connacht have been outstanding in the opening 40. #CONvLEIN pic.twitter.com/8QTV541P3Y

Relentless attacking rugby from @connachtrugby. @IrishRugby lost Paulie but @Ultan_Dillane has stepped up. He’s the real deal #pro12final
