Jesus Kidney is some man. He's just won the Grand Slam and whats the first thing out of his mouth?

He's some man.

Have to say it hasnt really sunk in here. I'll watch it again tonight and see.

O'Driscoll was simply awesome today.

O'Callaghan warned early on. Any more like that and he'll be in deep ****.
Penalty to ROG early on though after ridiculous cynicality from Ryan Jones.
Misses though.[/b]

Don't overlook the psychology of that moment. Ryan, the school bully trips poor little Ronan in front of everybody, just to let him know if he trys everything funny, he will get the **** kicked out of him for 80 minutes. But out of nowhere Ronan's big brother Donnacha let's Ryan know if he does anything like that again he will die a painful death. Set up the next 80 minutes and a grandslam.

Mmm yes. It all makes sense now.

I thought O`Callaghans performance was very poor and his lack of discipline was not what was needed in such a pressure match. You are not a hard man by grabbing someone by the collar. He made himself look a right dick.

Nah, he played well. His warning to Ryan Jones was important, but the 3 points he gave away could have been crucial. Tsk tsk. He knows. And so do you, follower of the Yellow Card Bonanza Merchants!

f*** me dead. About f***ing time Ireland won something. About time they didn't choke!

My dad will regret not waking up at 3:25am to watch this. Ah well. I've got 100% Irish heritage, I can call myself Irish for a week.

Gatland interview

No pessimism from him and I'm glad; there's little reason to be.

Both Welsh Props destroyed the the Irish props today, so we will probably see both going on tour with Jenkins starting!

Henson was good until he was asked to move to Fullback, as he had been keeping the Irish centers quiet until then!

You mean the Grand Slam which we fluked/won in a devalued 6N/were lucky to win?

We'd all be far better off if cavemen like you stayed indoors.

Wot?

Bitter that the Irish took over the Empire?

And now we're Grand Slammers as well. Wooohoooo!

Mind you, the country is bankrupt. But so is Britain.

In fairness, everyone has the money problems now. We always owned the empire, they just don't tell you in the History books.

I favour been gracefull in our success untill we get the TRF International Shield!

Glad Ireland won.
Pitty Wales lost.
Two great teams... England and france or on their way, and Scotland, they suprised me... a lot, great defence. I honestly think Scotland deserve a lot of credit, their defence was splendid, their lack of TRIES (which is usualy what WINS a game) let them down, but they have picked up the tempo, and i would give them 2 or 3 years untill they rise up to become tenders.

Italy... Well, its only time. lets all have our way with them now, but soon enough we wont be able to beat them. mark my word.

All in all, a good 6 nations, wide open, and fair play to the Irish!!!
