Leinster

The former Castleknock College player established himself as a senior player with Leinster, chalking up more than a century of senior provincial caps. On 27 March 2021, he made his 262nd appearance for Leinster in a victory over Munster in the grand final of the 2020–21 Pro14, exceeding Gordon D'Arcy's provincial appearance record.[2][3]

In March 2022, Toner announced that he would be retiring at the end of the 2021-22 season.[4]

Ireland

Toner made his Ireland Wolfhounds debut in the 2009 Churchill Cup against Canada in June 2009, and helped his side win the tournament in Denver with a win against the England Saxons.[5][6]

Toner was selected by Ireland's head coach Declan Kidney to make his International debut for Ireland against Samoa on 13 November 2010 during the 2010 end of year rugby tests.[7] He then came off the bench against the All Blacks and Argentina during the following week.[8] Toner was a regular starter for Ireland at lock from 2013 to 2018.[9]

Toner was left out of Joe Schmidt's squad for the 2019 Rugby World Cup, with Schmidt instead selecting Iain Henderson, Jean Kleyn, Tadhg Beirne and James Ryan as locks.[10][11] Toner last appeared for Ireland in February 2020 in the Six Nations.[12]
