BY KIERAN McCARTHY
THEY are the talk of the country, and rightly so, after winning silver at the Olympic Games on Friday, so in honour of Skibbereen rowers and Lisheen legends Gary and Paul O'Donovan, here are some of their best interviews from Rio.
Sit back and enjoy our local lads, who are the story of the Olympics.
