Trevor Hogan calls time on career.

Leinster Rugby can confirm that second-row forward Trevor Hogan has retired from the game with immediate effect due to a knee injury.

Hogan, 31 was capped four times by Ireland over a professional career spanning seven years. He represented Munster on 57 occasions before moving to Leinster in the summer of 2006 and was an influential performer in the province's Magners League and Heineken Cup successes.

In all he made 59 Leinster appearances, scoring three tries, though injury curtailed his involvement this season to one game against the Dragons in November, which proved to be his final professional outing.
