Former Ireland captain Paul O'Connell has been dipping his toes in the world of coaching lately and French Top 14 club Grenoble have released images of the Munster legend helping them out in training.

Coached by former Leinster hooker Bernard Jackman, the club are mid-table in this year's Top 14.

O'Connell was invited down by his former Munster team-mate Mike Prendergast, who is a skills coach at Grenoble.
