Pat Geraghty RIP
19th September 2017 By Munster Rugby Supporters Club
It is with great sadness that the MRSC heard of the passing of former Munster Media Manager, Pat Geraghty. MC at many of our events over the years, Pat brought his own unique style to our pre-match lunches and Q&A sessions, often bringing the house down with his witty quips.

Pat first joined Munster Rugby in 2000 after spending ten years with Leinster Rugby, and in making the move south the Kildare-native managed the media relations for the squad and organisation until the end of the 2012/13 season.
A hugely popular member of the Munster backroom team, for over a decade he was a constant figure in the province’s greatest successes including Celtic Cup and League wins in ’03 and ’05, Heineken Cup success in ’06 and ’08, and Magners League titles in ’09 and ’11.
During that time he also worked with the London 2012 Summer Olympics.
Educated at Clongowes Wood College, in his early days Pat played club rugby with North Kildare Rugby Club and continued his long-standing association with the club by joining them as Director of Rugby after his time with the province.
Our thoughts are with his wife Kathy, daughters Sarah and Mary-Kate, and all his family and friends at this time.
