On reflection, it was a great game, but that was because both sides really wanted to win. To be honest there was a short time just before the final whistle when I thought Wales were going to nick it. Congratulations to both sides, the Irish & the Welsh should both feel proud, perhaps the Irish just a little more.

well done Ireland. I am a red welshwoman thorugh and though and much as I wanted my beloved country to win, I think Ireland just about deserved their win. Smashing game to watch and I would like to have joined the celebrations, well maybe not, at least I have a clear head today!!!

BOD certain of his place .

I see few slots for Johnstons misfits maybe Sackey and Haskell with Flutey and Sheridan as outsiders.

Captain 0'Connel or Ryan Jones BOD unfurtunatley has been prone to injury so i dont think he will get the captain i pearsonaly would like to see him there.

Arguably the best centre in the world at the moment, a great player and a great statesman for his country.
