O'Callaghan's rise to the Ireland senior squad has been something of an inevitability since he shone in the Ireland Under-19 side that won the World Youth Championship in 1998.
After spells in the Under-21s, Under-25s and A teams, he made his senior debut as a replacement against Wales earlier this year and has gone on to win five caps in the second row.
A tremendously physical player, the 24-year-old lock looks to have a long international future ahead of him.
