I’m a huge Leinster fan 💙🏉💙 and I love Josh! 🥰 He’s awesome in stealing the ball off an opponent and just overall a great player. But in general he’s such a nice fellow and very humble. I’m Dutch 🇳🇱 and that’s another reason why Josh has a special place in my heart. But like him, I’m all for Ireland, where I live and will stay for the rest of my life. 💚🤍🧡
