Rewind to 2004 for a Guinness Six Nations classic between Ireland and England. England, fresh from their 2003 World Cup victory, faced down an Ireland side featuring the likes of Ronan O'Gara, Brian O'Driscoll and, that year's player of the tournament, Gordon D'Arcy. #teamofus

It’s difficult nowadays to articulate how big this win was. England was more or less unbeatable for 5 years at home and it was their first home game after winning a World Cup. Moreover, Ireland were easily beaten by France and had been mauled by England in Lansdowne Road the previous year.

That's a massive exaggeration. They were fortunate they didn't play the All Blacks in the final in 2003. England has never had the pedigree in terms of winning that New Zealand or South Africa have over them. Ireland seems to be the dominant team (Northern Hemisphere) over England for quite some time now and that doesn't look like it will change much in the near future.
