The funeral of the late Donal Walsh took palce today in St John's Church, Tralee, and was attended by hundreds of mourners who turned out to pay their respects.

Amongst those who were there were Munster players Ronan O'Gara, Damien Varley, Simon Zebo and Tommy O'Donnell, and they are all pictured here carrying Donal's coffin from the church.

They were not the only Munster players in attendance however, as dozens of the squad made showed up, as well as Kerry footballer Paul Galvin and Shane Jennings of Leinster, while thousands of mourners lined the streets as the cortege made its way from his home this morning.
