Girvan Dempsey (born 2 October 1975 in Dublin) is a rugby union footballer who plays at full back for Leinster and Ireland.
He has a stalwart of Irish Rugby and is one of the best players in his position in the World. Girvan is also known as "Girve the swerve" and is a favourite of Leinster supporters at their home ground in Donnybrook. The Swerve started his rugby career at Terenure College and played full back for Terenure College RFC. Girvan has over 50 international caps for Ireland and scored the match winning try in Ireland's famous victory over England at Twickenham in 2004.
He has very a impressive up-and-under kick and is an attacking option when he roars into the backline. People from a land called "Munster" dislike Girvan because he is like any of their talentless backs nor an Uncle Tom. Sane people follow Girvan, and are part of Girv's Gang and are on friendly terms with the "Caleb Crew", Caleb Ralph's unofficial fan club.
Girv is also known as Girvokoko (derrives from the All Black winger and was a Fijian Joe Rokocoko) when he plays on the wing, as a result of his electric pace and a freakish try scoring ability.
He is fifth on the all time Irish try scoring charts.
Also helped Terenure College to a Senior Cup medal, he was quoted as saying(during a match while he sprinted home to score a try), "It was a privilege to attend a school of the quality of Terenure, god bless".
