Diarmuid Barron

NAME: Diarmuid Barron

DOB: 06/08/1998

POSITION: Hooker

DEBUT: v Cardiff, September 2018


Barron is now an established part of this Munster team, and has filled in as captain on several occasions across the last two seasons.

The hooker had to endure a frustrating campaign in 2023/24, with a long-term foot injury limiting him to just ten appearances.

The Cashel native has also caught the eye of Ireland head coach Andy Farrell. While he's yet to make a Test debut, he was called into the wider Irish squad on multiple occasions in 2023.
