At Saturday night's RTÉ Sport awards, the late, great Anthony Foley was inducted into the RTÉ Sport Hall of Fame.

His sister Rosie was on hand to accept the award, and she expressed her gratitude for the support that the Foley family had been given by so many since the tragic death of her brother back in October.

Before the award was given, a tribute to Axel featuring the likes of Mick Galwey, Brian O'Driscoll, Jerry Flannery and more put in to words what the great man achieved, was played for the live audience as well as those watching from home, and it was absolutely beautiful.

They do some outstanding video work over at the RTÉ studios, and this was another incredible effort.

The words from a teary-eyed Galwey at the end were truly moving, and Rosie spoke wonderfully well while accepting the award too.

A truly lovely moment from the RTÉ Sport awards.
